rims and tires

after looking im going to paint my car and get new rims and tires for it after its driveable again...i need suggestions on rims..im thinking aftermarket 16x8 front irocs with 17x8 or 18x8 rears. I want basically quite ehm large and wide rear tires for traction when the *new* engine comes in (no word yet to anyone what it is) but the extra traction will help..ideas? Thanks

American Racing wheels makes pretty cool rims. Remember they specialize in american muscle cars so fit will not be a problem, they design wheels with backspacing for almost any application. Another thing I like about them is that their wheels take a pounding and yet they are very light so you can get the most out of that secret V8 youre getting

Anybody with experiences with those aftermarket irocs? Ideas on sizing?
