Default ordered some tires and wheels. ***UPDATED WITH PICS!*** ----AGAIN!!---

Well my tires will be in today. Went with the Nitto NT-01 315/30/18 rears and 275's up front. Going to order my wheels today. Going with the C6 Z06 deep dish chrome without rivets. 18x10.5 rear and 18x8.5 fronts. I kno a 275 is a bit wide for an 8.5 but I'll manage. Should make the car look a ton better. Should have everything on middle of next week. got the tires for $1210 after tax. And the wheels for $745. Not too bad I don't think. How you guys like ur nt01's??

Default C6 Z06's!! Chrome Deep Dish with 315's!

Got my wheels and tires mounted yesterday! It took some BFH, but i got em to fit! Im going to lower the car in a couple months, and when i do, i think im going to have to roll my fenders also...but o well lol.. the tires are nice, they hook very well once they get warmed up. Some dodge ram daytona treid to race me last night from a stop light...so the next light we came to i let him have it, launched the car from about 2500rpm or so (tryin to be easy on the rear) and they spun just for a second, then they hooked and i was gone lol.. but any way here are some quick pictures.

Looks great! Those are my favorite OE Wheels on a TA and I will end up with a set eventually. Too bad they have the Corvette center caps, but it's not too distracting. You lower that beast and everyone will be drooling.

i forgot about this post lol.... thanks guys, yea a drop is in the works, but im in the middle of gathering parts for a cam swap, so i figured i sacrifice an appearance mod for some more power >. the tires hook great, they even do pretty decent in the rain. I did have to BFH a few places to get em to fit, kinda sucks but o well, as long as they are on there . thanks again. o, also, i painted my calipers red added "trans am" logos and got a set of 4 cross/drilled slotted zinc plated rotors that made it look 100's better, ill post up some pictures soon.
