Any 6th gens with Chrome wheels out there?

KingLT1 · 08-23-2017, 09:38 PM

I don't mean to offend anybody here because I do like some black wheels, but it's all I see on these cars. I even have a set of dark stars on my 4th gen, but is there anybody out there rocking PVD Chrome wheels on their 6th gen?

I mention PVD specifically for this reason. https://detroitwheelandtire.com/pvd

PVD is far superior to regular chrome and does not add weight.

Of course! But I had black on my 2013.

Those do not look like Chrome, the finish looks similar to mine but they are actually painted silver.

I am thinking about getting these(Top picture) from Detroit wheel.

Bottom pic is what your wheels would look like in PVD Chrome.

I'd go with Torq Thrust wheels if I was looking for chromed.

Damn it! I just used my dad's 2010 1SS as a trade(to save tax since he wanted to move it). It had chrome TQ Thrusts I could of swapped out, but I didn't think the offset was correct so I opted to keep the stockers.

Thanks for posting that link! Car looks great with those wheels...its a coin toss on chrome or black chrome.

NP....i actually drove to Detroit Wheel and Tire and had them install for me...i wasnt sure if i wanted to do chrome or black chrome and they brought 1 example of each out and held it in front of existing wheel to see how i liked the look...i have always been a chrome wheel guy....wanst sure about black chrome...but the black chrome look in person is definitely a unique and different look...

I REALLY dig the chrome as well. Had an Appt. to have mine chromed at Detroit Wheel last Winter, but opted to do the Borla exhaust instead. Considering having them done this Winter when the car is in Storage........

KingLT1 - Those wheels are KILLER!!!!!!

Not to offend anyone IMO real shiny chrome wheels don't belong on a 6th Gen or 5th Gen Camaro. The car just doesn't look right with them. I do like the look of black pvd chrome though. To each his own as it's a person's car to do whatever mods they like and make it as individual as they are.

Zzzato · 08-24-2017, 09:36 AM

I think the main point also here is everyone has black wheels and very few options for anything but. You get a good looking set of chrome or polished 20 inch wheels and the car will look great. Not many exist out there though that aren't meant for an suv

The black thing is not my cup a tee at all. I think a set of chrome wheels would look good on a 6th gen.
