Stock LS Heritage wheels
I know most may disagree with me but I like my stock LS wheels. I think the black wheels look nice on any car. I know most probably think it looks cheap, and would prefer alloys, but to me the Heritage wheels are kind of a throwback to the rally wheels of the 60's.

Same car Before
After Once you change them, it really adds to the look. If you keep the steelies, try painting the trim rings to match the vehicle color. |

I personally like them too and I think they go with the theme I'm going with on my car. But my favorite part about them....THEY'RE SO EASY TO CLEAN! Lol

I've often thought of them as the modern equivalent to the ole 60's rally wheels. I would like to see someone paint them argent silver and then get the center caps and trim rings chromed. For a real throwback look.

A neighbor has a black 69 Camaro and with the heritage wheels on mine, they look sweet together! Having a hard time getting rid of them, one day I find something and the next day I want to keep them.

Not a fan at all. I feel like it was a lazy and cheap move on GM’s part…car looks incomplete…especially when people pull the trim rings off. A $13,000 eco-box can have cheep steal wheels….at $24,000 sport coupe should not.

I really enjoy the look and I'm glad GM went that route instead of a plastic wheel cover. The Rally wheel has been a part of Camaro history every generation except for the 4th, when GM used plastic wheel covers instead. The only difference--this generation, they're black!
Everyone seems to think they *need* some high-dollar custom wheels on their LS. It's all subjective, but personally, I think a set of clean 18" heritage wheels on an LS is the way to go. It's a good look. The money for custom wheels can be saved or used elsewhere IMO |

Member TooCool5 found and installed chrome trim rings on his LS. I like the look and was surprised it made so much of a difference.
I may paint mine one day to see how I like it. Not much to lose there. John B.

I like them as well, i have a white LS and with the black Heritage wheels it looks good! However, i am looking into selling them soon, i am purchasing a set of SS wheels and powder coating them black to match the theme of my car. PM me if you are interested in them!
