Nice. I like it so far. I say the last set of wheels. The others didn't fit well, and the rear tire is tucked in the fender. Just maybe some different front rims like the scion's body kit rims.

Try the search feature, its magical! Dude you have to chill out with the spamming. I really like the camaro and all but the first set of wheels were the best looking for me. The problem is they don't fill out the wheel wells perfectly. The last set is good if you can match up the rims.

Nice! I like the last ones the best, but maybe try firebird front rims or else it won't look right! From the firebird body kit, it comes with fatter tires for the rear, slick like, then put the regular ones on the front for a real drag style look.

You could always go with slammers. Use car tires in front, and slammed tires in back. That is what I did with my hemicuda project, it gives it great angle.

Just take the orange truck thing and chop up your rear. Tayyab did that for his rally car, it raised it big time. Basically truck a-arms and stuff on a car. Try and cut down the angle just a little, its a little much right now.
