Thanks, It is all wrap.

McGard makes a good black chrome lug nut, in two different lengths that will work with stock sixth gen wheels, and at a much better price than the factory option. I also went with the McGard locking lug nut (the GM branded version, since I found a good price from a dealership selling them on eBay). I have the wheel locks are topped off with Gorilla rubber caps which help them blend in a bit better with the other lug nuts.

Well, this is my 4th 6 Gen Camaro not including 2 5th Gens. I searched and searched for a reasonably priced LT1 and found a 2022 with 19,000 miles used...they had the gaul to ask $800 more than it MSRPed new. But finally found one at Edwards Chevy in Birmingham. Awesome dealership and awesome car. It had all that I would have ordered had I done a custom build. Sharkskin Grey with 20 inch wheels, sunroof and a few other goodies. I will post pics soon. Ya gotta love a Camaro...thanks GM.

These are great looking wheels...I only wish the rears were at least 9.5 inches so I could add drag radials.

Missed the fact that your front brake calipers are black. Mine are red.

Oops, missed the fact that your car is a 2SS.

In my 6th gen, watched a remote controlled jet-powered 3rd gen try to clear a bunch of school buses.

Maybe others have had good experiences with aftermarket TPMS, but I haven't. I'd bite the bullet and buy GM / ACDelco TPMS. $31 on Amazon is best price I've seen.
