Yeah man those look good would look even better laid out, but yeah man keep them, If i wasn't so sketched out about those wheel adapters i'd rock a set as well!

Since I saw this post this morning it has got me thinking about my C20's future.

I would find a wider axle in the junk yard for the rear, and add disk brakes while at it. For the front I would re-drill the 5x5 big rotors for 5x4.75, and see how thin of a spacer I could get away with. Mine would have to be 4" off the ground so maybe no spacer would tuck them for easy turning.

I usually prefer a wheel with a lip on our trucks, however I think those wheels look great on your truck, updates the look without being overly flashy about it.

they look chunky too me.. hard to do on a square..

maybe it's because the lack of a lip on them..

why? nothing wrong with a 2 inch adapter.. lots of cars run them i have 2" adapters on my truck..

worrying about an adapter is like worrying about running BMW wheels on a camaro/vette etc.

I know plenty of people using them, but it is not my style.

I really don't like the star wheels. something odd about them

Took a ride for the first time with the new wheels and what a difference. Rode 10x smoother and handled better. This and the wheels are slowly growing on me is why theyre staying on the truck. Also to the feller that said it would look better lower, I let all the air out of the helper bags and it sits about 1.5 to 2 inches lower.

Re: 2010 Camaro Wheels on Lowered C10

I like the look, it really modernizes the truck. Lower it a little bit more and it'll look stellar.

Well a lot of people talk about it but never pulled the trigger on 71-98 2wd 1500s. I guess finding spacer size/width was holding them back.

Theres a guy near where I work in Peoria with the same setup. I stopped and asked him about it a few weeks back. His truck and yours are the first two I've seen with those wheels, I think they look awesome! Now to find a set for my 84.

I was going to start putting away for salt flats myself. This sure is looking like a nice alternative, especially to the wallet.

Don't look bad but it could use some lip on the back rims to give it a wider look

They look good..when time come for tires..i think a lil taller tire would look good on tha back..
