I wouldn't put them on my car (besides the fact that they won't fit on an SS) because it's not the look I'm going for, but the steelies look deliciously old school, very musclular indeed. I can definitely understand why ALOT of people woldn't like them, but like Scott said they're keeping the base price low so you can upgrade if you want.

I think the yellow SS is a 2SS look at the headlights it's got the angel eye

Good god that LS has some bad fit issues.. was this a Pre CTF car or just a slap together? I cringed hard at that car.. SS was much better.

I guess im the only one that likes the black steelies in a rally sport, mad max, industrial sort of way. Dont get me wrong I like other wheels choices too, but if I had to scale back my budget Id be perfectly happy with the base.

I like the steel wheels. I have a 1976 Camaro which I have owned since 1984. I still have the original steel wheels which look very similar to these wheels. The wheel on that car now are Weld Wheel Drag lites, but I drove the car for at least 7 years with the original steel wheels. I think that is the kind of customer Chevrolet is building the Camaro LS for. Someone like me 24 years ago.

They won't fit your car.

Just a thought, but what if the steelies had a center cap in 2011 (chrome or silver like the trim rings) like the first gens.
I kind of like them the way they are, but they need a little dressing up. |

Good idea - also chrome lugnuts would be nice.

Gee, I don't think it looks all that bad for a base model.
Perhaps I am way out in left field, but, I can imagine a stripper package like that as an even more base SS model. But, hey I like the stealth look myself. Nothin' better than smokin' a Mustang with something that just doesn't look right. Perhaps that would be something offered as a B4C package for Police duty and goofs like me.

This changes things for me now i was thinking 2LT/RS but swap for the 1LT wheels. Looks like that won't be happening. |
