so i've been battling with my friends about what size and style zo0's to go with. i was thinking about going with the painted gun metal ones, but my friends say i need the chrome ones because my car is white? and i kinda want to go with 17x9.5 front and 18x10.5 rear, but they are saying it would look stupid and its more sensible to get the wheels all the same size and width cuz you can rotate the tires? and when would i have to start rolling fenders? or do i not have to worry about that unless i lower the car?

Read the FAQ to get how to get the 10.5's to fit http://web.camaross.com/forums/showthread.php?t=312442
As far as what color, its up to you, personally id go with chrome but depending on how you want the car to look should be the deciding factor. Getting two different size rims for the car wouldnt look stupid IMO. Most new performance cars some with two different size wheels on them.

the faq only touches on the 17x11 rim with the 315/35/17 tires... it doesn't go into 10.5's.

Each car is different, if you have a hammer, you can get them to fit. I got a set of 295/45/18's to fit on my friends firebird. Didn't have to roll the lip at all. just had to do a little beating, and cut the bump stops out.

What size tire were you looking for in the back? That's what you are going to run into clearancing problems. Most people cut it close with the bump stops. Some people get away with it, some ppl have the rim sitting on the bump stop when the car gets lifted by the body.

IMO i would get the same size tire/wheel all the way around.... you get more treadlife otu of the tires that way...

and i def say chrome ones.... gunmetal is so eh'ish imo

i was looking for 10.5 in the rear. do you still have to recenter the body for that size? i can do some beating with a hammer but the recentering seems like a whole lot of scary work IMO...

danhr

that's the rim size

what size tire

should be like a 295/45/18 or something of that sort

so i wouldnt have to go through all that mess if the tire was a 295 instead of a 315? a little hammering and cutting a bump stop dont seem too bad...
