i got $1500 for rims and tires

Im favoring 18's. I like TTII's and boyde smoothies but 18's are alot for those. I might go cheap and get some AE O77's.
I would also like Y2k Vette rims in chrome but their hard to find 4-18's and are usually over 1500.

Cause of my drive way, i need to know of a way to lower it adjustible for around 300 bucks. can anyone get coil-overs for around there or anything else? air-bags?

ground control sells the cheapest that i know of, and they are 400 with no shocks. as for rims, 18*9.5 and 1500 bucks, you are looking at rims only, and a grand for tires. you will need at least 275 35, and the cheapest on discount tires is 175. on tirerack, the cheapest is 158. that is for khumo's. they are not good tires. those prices do not include shipping, or mounting, or balancing, or warranty. At sears i found a tire for 195, mounted, balanced,with warranty for 205 plus tax.

I need some $$$ to finish my garage

I have some high dollar wheels typically seen on more exotic cars but they look pretty good on a Camaro The wheels were sold for $700 each (no tires mind you!). I have all the wheels with like new tires (around a 2 or 3k highway miles). I'll sell the set of 4 (17x9.5) for $1500 and throw in a damaged wheel (unmounted) for free

They are Ronal Gotti true 3 piece wheels...

One of my buddies is selling a set of 18" corvette wheels. They are the fat five stars and are powder coated black. He also has tires to go with them. He had them on his 00 pewter Z28, look very nice! Hope the link works. Hes asking $1200 for wheels & tires.

Do like I did, get some 18x9.5 form ebay for 899, then buy some 275/35/ZR18 MICHELIN PILOT SPORTS! They are on sale NOW for only $156 a tire!!!! That was a killer deal all together for $1600! Or Z06 style.

i'll give you my side, i bought a set of 17x11, 17x9.5's from www.wheelsforless.com for 1200 shipped (comes wiht lugs and stems). I then bought a set of 275/40zr17 and 315/35zr17 sumitomo hrz's for 550 from tire rack shipped for all 4, i then figured 100 bucks to put them on, oops went over 1500. well 1850 is pretty good for some nice wheels and new rubber. Maybe you should look into come 2001 c5 wheels you can find them pretty cheap, the oem ones are hard to find but just keep looking.
