Will do! I'm not real familiar with how the forums work, but I assume I'll need to start a new "thread". I think... Still learning. Anyway,

Its a hard decision to decide on wheels size. I found the C6 replicas very cheap new on ebay. I wanted 18's all around with 9.5 in wide front and 10.5 in the rear, but I quickly found out the price of tires for the 10.5" tires and changed my mind. So I've now ordered the set of 18x9.5 all around. $928 with tires mounted balanced and shipped. Got the 1.5" adapters/spacers for the front (ebay $60 shipped) and I picked up a 4th gen rear end which is around 4" wider total (Craigs list $150). I looking forward to returning home from my duty station in Germany to install all the goods in March. I cant flippin wait.

That is a sick ride brother. need to get some IROC taillights to finish it off. C6 wheels are a MASSIVE improvement over those... other... wheels.

Re: lowered my camaro (pics)

Hey man nice thirdgen love the colour and the stance was just wanting to ask what spacers\adaptors you went with I read you went with 1.7 up front but was wondering about the back mines got sportlines with koni adjustable shocks and I got oem c6 wheels same as you 19/10 and 18/8.5 my springs aren't cut I ordered a pair of 2" adaptors plan was to use them for the front and see if the backs fit with them aswell and order accordingly
