What size IROC rims are these?

They look too big to be stock 16s, but they really fill out the wheel well nicely. Also if anyone knows tire size, that'd be helpful.

They're 18s. Look just fine to me. I think it's the lighting on the ground which makes it look like it's sitting too high.

It's probably a combo of bubbly tires and big (18") wheels. Either way, it looks odd.
On another note: It really is too bad that the larger size IROC-Z wheels are all chrome. Chrome just takes all of the lines out of a wheel and makes everything cluttered. If they still offered the 18" IROCs NOT in chrome, I'd be interested, but the chrome is just ugly on those wheels; All of the definition that makes that style of wheel cool is gone when they're in chrome.

Re: What size IROC rims are these?
Dude was able to put 315s in the rear, so I guess they'd be bigger. Around 18x10?

At least the car won't scrape on every driveway it comes across! Still though if you want to drive up high buy a pickup don't jack up a sports car.

Re: What size IROC rims are these?
Well it seems this thread is finished. Posting pictures of other ThirdGens to simply bash/insult them is not allowed on this site.
It's OK when someone asks for opinions of their car/modification, and they receive an opinion (as long as it complies with our guidelines). However, it appears to me that some are going well above this by attempting to drill their own opinion to the point it drives away some that are negatively impacted by such opinion. The latter is not welcome. Not everyone is going to agree with what members do with their ThirdGen, and while giving opinions (within guidlines) are OK when they're asked, it's entirely different to beat someone over the head with their own opinion (especially when it's not their car that's impacted) to the point it drives away some. People should be mature enough to respect and live around those who may not 100% share the same opinion.
Given the production figures for these cars, and they being relatively cheap, there's probably going to be more than a few in this scenario. However, some of these modifications are certainly not restricted or isolated to ThirdGens. The Internet is full of examples of people who have taken a non-ThirdGen car and did something unique that may, or may not, be welcome to the general community.
