dont get them they look ugly

save your money and get a decent set of mags or even get some stokies widened and put fat tyres on them that looks heaps better

makes your gem look heaps tougher than stupid ugly camira wheels... oh and yer offset will be wrong with camira wheels too...

I recon it looks sweet as. Kinda looks like a VH commodore, but looks straight as and stock. That would be the ultimate car with an 11 sec motor!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Camira rims look like a good cheap alternative, not all of us have the money to go out and buy $2000 chromies!!
Big Plans' and matt bywaters' cars look great with camira rims!!

Exactly...not all of us are dept free and swimming in money...Polished Camira are a cheap, quick fix to having shitty hub caps or 13" alloys

PS an easier method for getting a polished look...PAINT THINNER to strip the wheels of the alloy "look" paint and get them back to the SHINY, CLEAN metal!

just a suggestion, it worked VERY well for me

Not to Mention, Polished Alloy is way better then buying $2000 Chrome rims, which i don't even think are Alloy, cuz you can't chrome dip alloy.
