I'm going to do a red pinstripe if I can get the pinstripe tape to look right and then I can paint the stripe in. I'll just lay it out first to see how its going to look. That way it will break up the black between the wheel and tire. I had some vet wheels a couple years back that had the red pinstripe and I really liked it. Should have them next Weds. or Thursday. I'm going to mount the tires first and then paint the pinstripe, that way I don't mess up the stripe on the tire machine. I'm hoping the wheels have a wide enough lip to do it, I think they do.

I know it hasn't happened yet, but still! When you get 'em, we need PICS!

Just found out the wheels are on the fedx truck and being delivered tomorrow. I'll check them out and then test fit them tomorrow night. Won't have the tires on till Thursday and hoping the weather holds out so I can get them done. I'll post some pics of the actual wheel tomorrow night during the test fit. I'm so excited. I'm hoping to get the pinstriping done tomorrow night or Thursday. I'm so ready for some new shoes. I really loved my old Sport Editions, but it was time for a change.

Shane, I like your new setup. Looks great. I thought about the Camaro wheels, but now everybody seems to be running them so I thought I'd try something new. How are the new tires working out. Is that your winter setup?

The car doesn't move much during the winter its just the street setup.
The 295's are a huge improvement over the 245s lol

They should be, couple inches more tread. I just got my wheels unboxed, not a bad looking wheel. If the weather doesn't get too bad tonight I should be able to get them on tomorrow. Just have to wait and see.

They just got here yesterday. The weather sucks here this morning and I may not get a chance to install them today. I'll take a couple pics this morning once I get out to my shop. I have a couple on my phone but don't know how to get them on the forum. They are a pretty good looking wheel. They are fairly light, the weight on the boxes were about 35 lbs, so the wheel is about 33 I'm guessing. Ray, the shitty weather is heading your way. Have fun.

Thats a 1/4" red stripe, I may try an 1/8" also. I normally don't ask for too many opinions. On this one I'm listening.

Thanks Ray, I'll post up some complete pics on Saturday after we get them mounted. I'm pretty pumped up and think its gonna be pretty bitchin. Did that wind pick up? I'm hoping it gives us a break soon.

We did have some wind and maybe 2-3" of snow. Which I'll need to remove from the driveway soon.

I'll put them on black so I don't tear the pinstripe when mounting. Then I'll get home and take some pics. I'll pull the wheels and start taping them up, should have th pinstriped by sunday. Thanks for the comments.
