Thanks for all the kind words! Those are the 17x9.5" wheels with the 275/40-17 tires. I originally bought the wheels for my S/C Camaro but when I picked up a red Formula it was a no brainer to put on there. It really looks better in person, I lowered the res of the pics to be dialup friendly. As far as showing it, the car will be at Carlisle GM Nats June 23rd-25th stop by and say Hi if your there!

That's in the works, just a little bit though it is a daily driver. I may tinker with the motor a bit later. Coming soon is the full suspension and 3.27 9 bolt from the camaro. Then subframes.
