Wheels, and getting new tires
*Edit* oops, wrong board, can a mod please move? Thanks!

Okay, changing my post because i know it's stupid. It's just damn hard to find good looking tires (style over performance?)

This is what I WANTED, but they only come for 15'' rims

Firestone Firehawk® Indy 500® with UNI-T®

What I most likely will get: Anyone got these? They any good?

As you can tell there is that certain style that i'm trying to go for!

Re: Wheels, and getting new tires
Those indy's are sexy. Can't afford new wheels though, so i'd probably have to get the cobras


How well do they perform?

Nope. 16's. I don't want aftermarket rims either because I love the camaro wheel cap... but i figure i'll eventually replace em.

Re: Wheels, and getting new tires
i like the oem rims, that is why i stayed with them. i went through that new rims thing and decided that i loved my rims when i first saw them and no need to buy any others.
they may be only 7 inches wide but i can put plenty of rubber on the road.

Re: Wheels, and getting new tires
Hey Tony, I think i have the same size rear's as you do but mine seem to stick out further.

Nevermind just remembered i have 295's on the back.
