Gary@Ronal, or anyone knowing about the wheels....
I would like to know the weight of the "Firehawk" wheels that are being reproduced. How do they compare to say a 91-92 Camaro rim? Also, with the offset for the rears, what is the widest (still low profile though) tire that can be mounted and clear ?315/35/17? Thanks to anyone that can answer this for me!!

A 315 tire may physically fit on the Firehawk 9.5" rim, but it would not be practical from a performance stand point on that narrow of a rim. 285 would be the widest you'd want to go. A 315 is best on a 11" wide rim like the ZR1 guys are running.
