Default "Gear Head" born and raised, but new to CF

I've been lurking here for a long time learning allot from you guys really. But I've never posted or joined the CF until now. I'm looking to buy a C4 car as a "Fun Driver". I have an older 69 Camaro that has part of my soul because I've owned it for 34 years. The Camaro is my hot rod around town cruise inns etc. that I will never get rid of. I love the looks and feel of a C2 and C3 don't misunderstand me. But I'm wanting a C4 as a Fun driver. I'm wanting it for my wife to drive some and a car we can take out of town for a long week end etc.

Looking at so many for sale I've noticed the different wheels on them. I'm curious as to what was factory and what someone has added or maybe and option for that year $$...I've seen so many of the "saw blade" wheels but often I see C4 with polished 5star wheels on them. Any feed back will be appreciative.

Welcome, but post up your questions about the various wheels for the C4 in the C4 General section. There are plenty of helpful members there that can give you the answers.

Welcome to the forum!
We had C4s for many years before moving to the C5. Really enjoyed our time with them and used them as daily drivers. Some of the difference in wheels is based upon model year and options, but as Vetteman Jack and Gold Dragon pointed out, the members in the C4 section will be able to answer all your questions about wheel styles.
We also had a '69 Z28 that we unfortunately sold. Glad to see you're hanging on to yours.
