They look great and the price has not been beat. Now that Ive seen yours on a car similar to mine, I may take a second look to see if those may not look better than the black ones I planned to get. Looks great. Those 17's or 18's?
17's Sometimes I wish I went with 18's but I'm only lowered one inch. 18's would allow for less wheel gap and probably a little less tire.

Re: Firebirds with Corvette wheels

Any chance someone has a GTA or late 80's T/A with 5spoke ZR1's?
I'm trying to decide if I want to keep the original gm zr1 wheels for it and go with c5 Z06 wheels. Silver/gray of course no chrome.

You have a nice side shot of your car? I have C5 speedlines ready to go on mine and I'm trying to decide between Sportlines or Pro's. Any comment on running Sportlines?

Re: Firebirds with Corvette wheels

C5's - 275/45R17 all around. new NT555 G2 tires since the pic. Absolutely need 2" Spacers all around (USAWheelAdapters is where i got them), unless you swap to 4th gen rear like i did. you can see the spacer behind the front wheel only..
Will post another pic once Koni shocks and Vogtland springs are installed.
