Score (Hot Rod Edition)

Snagged a set of used Camaro rims today for a song.

5th gen Camaro is a Zeta platform car, just like The Beast.

That means the rims swap!

Test fit, rear.

Test fit, front.

Four rims for $125.  With tires I don't want, and wouldn't trust anyway.  Never mind they're 245/50-18 and I prefer the stock 235/50-18 size.

They're noticeably lighter than the steelies and look a lot better.

This is also the product of lots of back and forth with The Lovely Harvey about what rims we wanted for The Beast.  We both like this rim and getting a set for the price of a single rim was gravy.

I am happy that these clear the big brake mod handily.

    Those look good. Definitely an upgrade and a smoking deal.
