Looks good!! I put the IROC tailights on my car too, and I like them much better. 1 of the spring projects is buying a new IROC grille and adding the foglights, too.
I saw that the front-end is all red, but the back has grey. Does it have some sort of red to grey fade now? I can't tell from the pics. Looks great though!

yeah, they fade from red to grey on the sides.... and now it has a bowtie grille on it. anybody have any pics? I never see any other red '88 sport coupes or any '88 sport coupes for that matter. Notice the rims are painted like IROC rims as well..
Today I also got a new camaro insignia for the nose.

nothing of just the tires. they are excellent for traction, but they don't seem to be much worse than 215/65's in the snow. I will probably crack it up this winter though.
If you were to get fatties get 265/60's. maybe they won't rub like the 275's do.
if you want the wideness but not so much fat, get 265/60's. they might fit on the rims.
By the way, I updated my signiture.

SlowCamaro,
If you seriously think you're gonna crack the car up, then get some snow tires! They sure as hell are cheap enough!
Over Turkey Day Weekend I gotta put mine on my car...damn I miss not having a winter ride! What I did was I bought 4 Monte Carlo Ralleys from a boneyard for $75, and painted them silver. They came with 2 of the center caps, and I picked up 2 others for $20. Then I got a garage sale 4 like-new chrome trim rings off a Nissan pickup for $5! So for $100 I got an extra set of rims to mount 4 195/75/14 snows on (the rear 2 are studded). I went with the 14s so I'd have a nice narrow tread for cutting through snow. They look great on the car, and winter of '98/'99 I never came close to getting stuck! And I was on real nasty roads too...
I highly recommend snows to ANYONE who is even considering snow driving this winter! And if you don't believe that this combo can't look good, go over to my website (www.geocities.com/jee89) and have a look at my pic of the snows on it.
