Default Alternatives to HRE's wheels
Anyone know any cheaper alternatives than HRE's for wheels that look close to these that could fit the camaro?

First one attached is a 540R and the second is a 545R

+rep if you can find something that is really close to the first one but MUCH cheaper. And anything really close to the second too.

Going to look up a link right now...

I came across some BMW wheels that looked very similar to the first rim, what models of BMW can use the same wheels as our camaros?

Good lookin, those goin on your Camaro huh? hell here I was gonna recommend OZ ultra/superlegia s, cheaper yes for a set. But not by a huge amount. Also they're uber light which would help your weak ass v-6 get up a little better.
