um ya. got the wheels. first set makes it look like a 4x4 frog. sick wheels, and ride height and no flaring done, but they just gave me a bad taste in my mouth.
second set. ok, feeling these. something totally different on a first gen camaro. adv billet monoblocks!!

I definitely dig the second set more than the first, but if you flare the **** out of the fenders, the first set might play alright. The second looks like it's got hellatuck in the front too, but I like the design better.

ya, the adv's are a pretty sick wheel. big lips look cool, but the trend the last couple years has been monoblock and recently, concave monoblock. so trying to stay on the style tip, haha

one thing ya can't see in the pics is with the car sitting at that height (3" ground clearance and that actually is ALOT for me!) the a-arms are sitting at about a 40 degree angle, which is giving it HUGE camber gains with any suspension movement. with the adjustment maxed out i am still at about -4 or so degrees! i either need to make a new upper mount and move it up and out, or add 2.5" to the length of the upper arm. or, channel in the front subframe and drop the body over the frame. with that comes alot of other mods like trans tunnel yadda yadda.
making a new mount is probably the best choice to get my geometry back, but those big freaking tires are wreaking havoc on my turbo placement! oh well, think i got it figured out. the back is no sweat. just need a truck rearend (wider than the stock camaro) which will be a dime a dozen and maybe some light spacers. oh ya, plus notching the frame. hahhaa. gotta be low!!
