Just to answer a few questions:
ROH RT Wheels / SILVER -- 18X9 Front and 18X10 Rear
Tires are (BFG G-Force KD) 295/35/18 rear & 275/35/18 Front
I purchased them through Group A or JD Wheels last spring, I do not remember now so I would have to check the bill. Honestly ROH rims have to be the most affordable decent wheels you can buy, but they are heavy compared to the expensive stuff. I think you can get them in chrome!
For the ride height I used Hotchkis springs, left the front alone, but cut 2 coils off of the rear ( little by little to get it right ). The only piece of suspension still stock is the TQ Arm, oh and sway bars.
Clear markers were purchased from procarparts.com? I think that was the name as it was a few years ago. If you search the name I think they will come up here.
Thanks for the comments everyone. From what I can see some of you have some clean cars aswell!! shawn18jgr, car is sick really!

Looks really good man! I like those better than your old 17's. How are you liking the 295's out back? I am planning to step up to the 295's in the BFG D-R when my cheap 285's wear out. Since out BS and offsets are the same on the same vehicle, you could warn me if they rub o hard turns or something.

I have just enough room for the 295's. I have almost no fender lip anymore, I feel the backspacing is not quite right on these, they could and should sit back another 1/2''. I still have at least an inch of clearance in behind though. I would say stick with a nice 285!! But....I do have BFG's, and they tend to always be wider than say a Falken tire for some reason. I think I have a better rear shot that shows the whole rear end, so I will try and post it tonight to show you what they look like from behind.

Hey, just noticed you are going with the BFG DR's, if that is the case you should be fine! The guy I bought these tires off of has a Saleen and put on some 295 BFG DR's in place of the G force KD's he sold me, the DR's are actually a little bit narrower, both 295's though. What tires are you running now?

I am running a Sumitomo HRTZII, and they seem to be a decent tire for being the cheapest 285/35r18 I could find, but I want to dip into the 14's at the strip and traction is the only way I think I can pull this off.
Thanks for the info, I knew my 285s were a little tight with no fender massaging, and wasn't sure If I could pull off the 295's.
