I haven’t been posting on the board for a while what with full time school and a full time job. Just got a set of 01' 10 spokes today and wanted to post a pic.

Pic doesn’t do the chrome justice - it rained the entire time I was putting them on and as soon as I tightened the last nut...it stopped, sun came out.

looking VERY nice man, I've always liked the 10-spoke chrome rims. Esp combined with the WW ground effects, i think it makes camaros, expecially your style, very sharp looking.

Looks good man..just took mine off about 2 weeks ago.

ap2000z28 01-11-2008 11:33 PM

usp55 01-12-2008 12:30 AM

thanks all - its an auto.
I still have the silver ones, just need new rubber for them. I was running my salad shooters for a while.

ap2000z28 01-12-2008 07:31 AM

usp55 01-12-2008 10:56 AM

My condolences. have you done anything to the engine?

Frosty 01-12-2008 03:06 PM

Looks good. I like it.

Don't worry about the heat you're going to get for the car being an auto, usually those that criticize can't keep a car running for more than 2 days or can't get out of the 14's...or both :lol:

deadtrend1 01-12-2008 04:36 PM

i don't see why its bad to own a auto.

Car looks good though

put back on the stockers for winter/salt

usp55 01-13-2008 12:54 AM

bubba - I've nothing to the engine beside rebuild it about 10k ago. only a 6 cyl, so im not racing anyone as it is so why bother to squeeze a few extra ponys out of it. Just a daily driver i like to play around with.

ap2000z28 - no i was just asking what rims u put on for the winter. As close as we live to each other i never see your car.

the stock salad shooters he said....

usp55 01-13-2008 10:34 AM

yea i missed that one...

ap2000z28 01-13-2008 01:11 PM

haha yea I hate the look of the car, thats why i wanted to know bout your silver 10 spokes. always wanted to powdercoat a set black for the winter :nod:

usp55 01-13-2008 02:54 PM

I'm not sure what I want to do yet. The silver ones need a new set of rubber, i still have the salad shooters with goood rubber. I think im gona save the cash instead of buying new rubber for the silver 10 spokes and put that towards the ss spoiler and ss hood + paint that i want. Whick means i dont need the silvers, but they are my brothers from when he had the car so they r really not mine to sell. I'll see if he would be interrested in selling them though, ill let you know.

Blacdout96 01-13-2008 09:15 PM

the WW kit looks great on your car, and the rims actually go with it. im not a big fan of the ten spokes, and only can be pulled off wihta few colors, and it works for oyur car withthe kit. the only thing you need for oyur car is a SS wing for it now and it will be set.

usp55 01-13-2008 09:22 PM

thanks - U beat me to it, I ordered the spoiler tonight. The SS hood a few weeks later and then respray the entire car the week of march 3rd. Going black again but not sure if i want to mess with painting the scoop of the SS hood diff - red? grey? not really a fan of stripes. I cant stop thinking about it.

the question of auto or manual is relevant cause this thread is not in the appearance section, and being that it makes a huge difference in the performance of the car I asked. It also costs 3mpg to have an auto 3.4.
