They are 15x8 wheels, with a 275/65/15 tire. Those wheels are designed for a 4th gen Monte, so they stick out a tad bit.

So thats a 29" tall tire right? I was thinking of going from a 26" tall to a 275-60-15 which is 28".

If you had the correct backspacing, would your tire rub?

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims

So many nice wheels, how does one choose? I'm riding a black 'Roc with gold trim, (stock appearance, stock gold iroc rims) and was thinking about black wheels with gold trim. Anyone riding on gold w/black trim or black w/gold trim. Have thought about NASCAR style wheels and painting a little gold trim. Anyone seen that style of wheel on a third gen. I have thought about "Snowflakes", but that's too Pontiac, nothing against 'Birds, but I'm a "CHEV it or leave it" http://www.wheelsnext.com/wheels-tires-packages/Black%20Rock-942D-Black%20Flat.html

Looks like Forgestar F14s.

Any pics of the car with the hood? Any more pics? Looks great.

Haven't driven it yet, but hopefully it's pretty decent. It's setup pretty stiff though, as I set it up in hopes of doing some road racing.

I was kind of worried about that too!

That's them. I love them, but I wish they were a little lighter. I was hoping for around 16 lbs, but they came in around 24 lbs. BUT, I don't even know if you can get a 19 that wide that's that light...so I might be doing good (without spending over 5k).

I have my hood...it's propped up in the garage (just got it back), but my car is at the dyno getting tuned...so I haven't put it on. I just went with an ultra light RS style hood. I wanted to keep the Z28 hood (tired of seeing all the usual fiberglass hoods), but no one makes a light one.

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims

Yes, tell us more please. Great combo with that paint color. Looks more like a TA than a Z28, for some reason, and it looks awesome.

That SooB reminds me of a guy down in Arizona who builds "Viper Killer" STI's. He builds them to 700-800 horsepower. That much power with all wheel drive would be hard to beat.

Still, I like spinning the rears from time to time

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims

I still can't take my eyes off of these darn C5 deep dish wheels.

One, they look outstanding, and they look like they were made for our cars.
Two, at $477.00 for the whole set, I don't see how these can be beat.

My other top wheels:

1. stockers
2. Boyd Coddington- Magneatos
3. Boyd Coddington- HotRods
4. ROH- Snipers

To each their own, I suppose.

I'm surpised I haven't got a lot of "I agree" comments when I posted this before. Here they are on a nice Camaro:

Those are pretty sweet! Kinda look like ROH snypers. I didn't realize they were that inexpensive. I love that car! His car was the first one I saw with the z06 wheels on it.

$477 is a bargain. Just a shame you have to use spacers, which I feel detracts from the look slightly.

After a while, you don't really notice them. It just looks like your hubs are on steroids.
If you run a 4th gen rear, you don't have to use them on the back.
Spacers are a necessary evil, unless you want to pay triple that for some nice looking rims.

Somehow I missed this and it's been AWHILE now.. Haha. Anyways, I'm shopping for tires right now.. That's why I'm actually on here making sure I want these wheels on the car before I commit. I used your pictures for reference on deciding what I want to do and I hope these turn out good on the car and color scheme.

I don't know if you remember my SS wheels that I painted, but they will be going on my car when it's painted in the next month. The car will be a purple pearl color that looks "black" until the sun hits it.

Here's the wheels as they are now:

Thanks! I think I paid a little over $400 each for them. Tires were another $1200 or so (damn wide 19s).

Those black wheels look a little like the new Caddy's wheels. CTS-V

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims

I still say the 85-87 IROCs look best.
