fronts are 17x9.5 , rears are 17x11 with 275/50ZR/17 tires, but they're wayy too small for those rims, so i'm thinkin of going with 295s, but not sure what brand yet.

Nice wheels ;)

11 inch rears calls for 315 width. they look real nice though.

79dizZy28 12-12-2005 03:06 PM

:stupid: the rims look good tho

qwikz28 12-12-2005 03:20 PM

take those rears off and use them for the fronts or sell them. i dont think they are safe to drive like that

Pat 12-12-2005 03:22 PM

great choice. now you just need the !4x4 mod and you're all set

jims69camaro 12-12-2005 04:34 PM

Sweet lift kit! Where did you get it!?










Drop that sum-bitch and ditch the 275's thats wicked gay. Putting 275's on a 11" wide wheel looks like an over-stretched rubber-band.

I like the rims, now just drop it and get some fat rubber for the rear.

Alex, your avatar sucks! :razz:

BFG KDW's are one of the better tires out there. They are a 3 season tire, but do the job well. Depends on what you are looking to spend.
I also suggest to buy 315's for the rear.

IROCZBeast 12-13-2005 05:31 AM

i thought you were going with pro stars? or some drag type style wheels?

i had trouble fitting my 315's in the back, even with the APHR. you really might be better off trading the rears for another set of 9.5's and just run those all the way around, especially if you actually plan on lowering. unless for some reason it actually fits with more than .5" of clearance like mine had...

Thats strange, I dont have any fit-met issues, and my car is lowered.

Savage_Messiah 12-13-2005 11:15 AM

Ah but alex you claim to hear tire rubbing sounds ;)

BigAls87Z28 12-13-2005 11:17 AM

LCAR's should fix that.

true, but I don't think he had any issues with the 315's on the car, just the stockers :shrug:

Savage_Messiah 12-13-2005 02:42 PM

ah good point

Firebird67dude 12-13-2005 02:54 PM

As of today Hillsdale police department told me that the 315s on the back of the T/A are illegal n if they see me driving with em they r gunna impound my car. (not like they havent b4) All i did was a couple donuts in a fully empty parking lot with absolutely no1 around. Anyway u def. need to put 315s on the biotches.

Tru2Chevy 12-13-2005 03:16 PM

Umm, did they give you a reason that the 315's are illegal? Never heard of that one before.

Although I could see them impounding your car for doing donuts....
