Camaros in Koni Challenge

There are going to be a lot of Riley-prepared Camaros in the 2010 Koni Challenge. This one just looks downright silly with the spec 17" wheels and Hoosier tires:



It highlights how bloated the Camaro is that it requires 20" wheels to make them look proportional to the rest of the car. Of course, the white wheel wells don't help matters...

Why are they using such small tires for the small wheels? Those are the same profile as the tires on 20s

Wow those do look tiny. I was hoping to be able to downsize some to save some weight but obviously I won't be able to go down that far and look right.

Can't be helped! Guess if your car looks like that, you'd want to be fast too - so no one sees you in it.
