Tire question

I was wondering if a 295 tire will look any wider than a 275 tire on a 9.5 inch wide wheel, or will the rim width restrict the 295 from looking as wide as it can.

The sidewall will "bubble" out about 1/4-1/2" inch from the rim lip.

I just checked out your Z28. IMO, I wouldn't put any ground effects on it. Looks like bad-*** American muscle as is, so why put crap that the Fast & Furious crowd uses to make their rides look like what we already have on it?

You have a GREAT looking ***-kicker of a car. I say, "why cheapen the look of a Stalion?"

Just my $.02 worth...

Thanks for all that praise, I never wanted to go for that fast and the furious look. i just liked the way the RS type GFX look, they make the car look so much lower than it is and they follow the cars body lines so its not any thing extreme. I mean after all look at the vettes they are almost kissing the road. Anyways i myself decided not to get the GFX its just too much money for an appearance mod.
