Those are the wheels I’m looking to get! Are they factory or reproductions? I was looking at the ones made by Factory Reproductions.

I wanted a ZL-1 but got too good of a deal on the 2SS (I’m thinking because the bumper design that wasn’t attractive) and had the same thought as I drive it everyday.

Sorry we didn't get to chat, I just waved and went on my way. Hopefully once this pandemic passes and we organize the North Jersey meet we'll get to talk about your supercharger. I have many questions. LOL

Oh. I don’t think my stock tires, which are practically new, will fit those. But I could be mistaken.

Yeah, these are 20x10 and 20x11. When I first got my new wheels, I put the stock 275/35R20 tires from the rear up front, and got new 305/30R20s for the rear. I was in the same boat as you, not wanting to waste good tires, but there was just no way to reuse all 4 on that wide of a wheel.

I would do black! Too much blue is not good in my opinion.

Blue might be cool as long as it matches... You need the GMP Cold Air Intake to further dress out your engine!

Black it is. I like that pic above. Blue might be too much because I plan on painting the engine cover middle part blue and the camaro text

quick question, umm i was told that its ok use semi synthetic engine oil on a camaro 2ss under 3500miles because the car is still new and not much mileage on it but from what i know its better to use full synthetic and i believe thats what the 6.2 v8 engine take?

Full Synthetic, DEXOS approved 5w20, is what GM says you should be using. Why go semi-synthetic? Cost? To me it’s worth the extra $$ to just go full synthetic. Oil is kind of an important engine component, so go with what the manufacturer says.
