Anyone know any good black rims for a low price for a 2017 Camaro SS

Anyone know any specific companies to get good low priced rims for a 2017 Camaro SS? Or any specific recommendations for black rims? Thanks!

American Racing AR913 or AR924. I think the right one is the 913. Looks good and a low price. American Racing has been a good low-cost brand for a long time.

HRE FLOWforms are not bad either. It depends on what you consider low priced.

I need a quality set of four rims for my 1LE as well.
I'd like to pull the factory wheels off come October when the temp gets below 45.
A set of four rims with new all - season rubber.
This will give me several more weeks of riding before the snow comes.
Come Spring, I can take her out of storage in April rather than May.

OP: it would be helpful to know what diameter and width you want the wheels to be.
And, what is your price target?
What are these wheels for: motorsports, winter use, bling ... ?
Also - this post should be on the Wheel & Tire forum.

Tire Rack and Discount Tire have good car & wheel configurators. I have a set of TR Motorsport C4 wheels for my Camaro from Tire Rack, they were very cheap and they look good in black. I bought them in 18x8.5", for general street use and they clear SS brakes. They would also be good for a set of winter tires, if that's what you want them for.
My other set of wheels is 18x10 Apex FL-5's, only 20.5#, for use with tires that will go to the track and autocross. At $419 each, that's expensive to some people but cheaper than MRR and HRE flow formed wheels that others here have recommended (and are good options if your budget goes that high). In my original post I suggested American Racing because they are cheap, look good, are widely available, and it's a proven brand.

Audio City Wheels (I know, dumb name, has nothing to do with audio products)

https://audiocityusa.com/

Largest selection of wheels I've ever seen and low prices too.

Are you running the same offset on all 4 wheels?

Yes, +25. I am using 5mm spacers on the front axle (may not be strictly necessary) together with extended thread lug nuts to engage enough threads on the lugs.
It's a compromise to run a square setup, but it's nice to be able to rotate and replace all four tires at the same time.

I had forgestar's on my Mustang. I loved them, and they are pretty reasonably priced. I did Piano Black, they looked amazing when they were clean, and just flat black when they were dirty.

Stop cleaning the brake dust off the stock rim/brake pad combo for a few months.

Yup, put on Power Stops at 140 miles.

The best looking black rims are the stock 5 spoke Camaro rims.
