Question black wheels for a 2000 camaro

I recently got my new camaro and I want to put black wheels on it. The tires that came on the car are in great shape so I'm not looking to change from the stock wheel size. I'm having a tough time finding black wheels that will fit on the internet. Does anyone know of anything that might work? Something on the cheap side?

I found my black wheels on craigslist. Guy was asking $200, I picked them up for $160 for all 4. Keep checking craigslist.

There are tons of options, but we need more information. What is your current tire size? Specific design (C5/6, Z06, etc)? and budget?

OEwheels has a great selection of replica vette wheels in pretty much any configuration and size.

My tire size is 215/55R16. The guy down at Discount Tire said I need to be looking for a 16 x 8 wheel with a 5 x 120.65 bolt pattern and an offset from +40 to +55. I have considered powder coating but I thought I might be able to find some wheels for cheaper. I'm not looking to spend more than $400.

ehhh 400$ is low when it comes to rims.
Black Camaro Wheels
and those are some pretty cheep rims.

why not just powder coat your stock rims?

or you could go here www.rentawheel.com and pay 22$ a month for the rest of your life

Thanks man. I've seen this website before, but everything is either 17 or 18 inches. 16 seems to be hard to come by. I found a guy on craigslist who said he would powder coat my stock rims gloss black for $60 a piece, so I'm leaning towards that now.
