No these are them,

2002 Berger Camaro - The Supercar Registry Bulletin Board

I'm on my iPad so I don't know if the link works or not. Just copy and paste.

you'll be hard pressed to find those fikses for 1000 even without tires. At that price, I think you're gonna be limited to the OE Wheels type stuff

Camaro Wheels

right now they're having some pretty solid sales on wheels

^ Thanks for the link Cheeks. Anyone have the stock width handy for SS wheels? Also, at what point are fender rolling or bumpstop mods required? aka:
11" ZR1 Wheels

Looks like 17" typically come in 8.5, 9.5 and 11 from OE Wheels, but from my research, the SS factory correct sizing is: 17x9", 50mm offset... Any drawbacks to going with a different offset like 9.5?

So I am looking at a few wheels via Discount Tire - forget their website - they have very little online. But many of the wheels they have are direct from:

Factory Reproductions

Check them out, a lot of good options. I also learned that many of the wheels you see out there are made by Factory Reproductions, and they just slap a different name on them for other vendors, supposedly there are very few companies that actually manufacture wheels...

Looks like for summer I am going with some nice 17" rims & 275 width BF Goodrich GForce Sport Comp2 tires. Separate winter wheels/tires -- tired of all season tires' sucky summer poor grip.
Maybe these:


or these:

Just got rid of a Oem set of the std c6 wheels but they were 18s they are a nice looking wheel. There are a few 4th gens running around with them and they look nice

I think I finalized on a little more edgy look, not as boring as the others:
