C6's on a Formula

I've used the search function, checked out the F-Body Modification guide with the huge galleries... but still cannot find very many pictures of chrome 18" C6 wheels on a LT1 Firebird. Can anyone help me out here?

Re: C6's on a Formula

I would be interested in this as well... Anyone? ...Not sure if I'd go 18s all around, maybe a combo of 17s/18s. What would be the desired backspace/offset?

Yeah, thanks man. I'll def. look at these, I was thinking about black ZR-1's. Not sure how well the C6 wheels will fit inside the wheel wells. Also not sure how good they are for drag racing.

Ah, 17 and 18" combo. I thought it was the 18 19". That's still sweet thanks for the find.

I'm sure the aftermarket companys will start putting out 17-18"s soon.

Re: C6's on a Formula

Will these 17x9.5s fit w/o issues on all four corners? w/o sticking out of the wheelwell too much or being too close to and rubbing the inner fender well fronnt & back? (54mm)

Re: C6's on a Formula

I've got 18x9.5 on all four corners on my 95Z. The fit is absolutely perfect with 275/35 on them. I bought them off ebay from a seller called AAArims. The price was good, the wheels were perfect, the wheels arrived the week I ordered them and they came with center caps, lug nuts, wheel locks, and valve stems. I have some pics in my sig
