New Rims for my Camaro (DONE) :)
My Dad and I been talking for the past few days and we are very close in going in on halves for a set of ZR1 replica's 17x9.5's and tires (275/40 ZR17's)
it comes out to 900$ Here is a pic, Im going to talk to him tonight and see if we can make a choice. Choice is made and they are being bought tomarrow!

$900 is a good deal overall for 17" ZR1's with tires but like Justin said you can probably get them even cheaper if you really look around. They are extremely popular wheels so they are all over. Personally I'd look over all the different message forums seeing if anyone's selling theirs. Then you can get them for quite a bit less. Maybe use the extra money for some lowering springs or something.

Well thanks for the suggestions and comments, My dad gave me the go and Im buying them tomarrow over the phone so I can get the chevy bowtie instead of the vette flag, I know they can be found cheaper but usually cheaper = curb rash and some damage as I have been searching for a while, Im putting a 150$ down payment to my dad tomarrow 
Yes, and why not go something different, because those are the rims Ive always wanted 
Real ZR1's are 1200+ $$ for just the rims, so I see paying 214.75 cents per tire + rim is a good deal with 130$ shipping, thats where the extra 100$ comes in, so they cost 859$

yea I know, my dad and I have been talking for the last 3 days about them, and tomarrow is the day, im so stoked, its going to make my Camaro looks so bad ***, I can offically say im part of the modding club with more stuff for my car, im keeping the 16's as spares and winter rims and tires, put the cheapy non zr's on there...you guys are knowing about this even before my friends so feel lucky
Just to make 100% sure 17x9.5's will fit in the front wheels wells with out any clearence problems right, Im pretty sure people have 18 x 9.5's in the front and they fit just fine.

Oh yeah...mine are 17x9.5s and they have no issues whatsoever. I'm running 275/40s BFG KDWs, so with tires, I'm sitting at about 10.5 inches wide. Plus mine have that huge offset too, so you shouldn't have any problems. And yeah they'll def change the whole look of your car for the better.
