wat you think? do you have any rims in mind that would look good? i dont want to have a rim everyone else has ya know i want to be somewhat different. should i run 17x9.5's in the front and 18x10.5's out back to give it a different stance or should i go same size all the way around? does anyone know whats the widest tire i can put on the back without having to cut or bend anything?

Here are some of mine I just put on my Firehawk. I have seen them on an SS and they look awsome on then there called HP lighting 19X9.5 all the way around. Mainly I like the dish on them. Everything with a dish for F-bodys alway cost so damn much but no these

I got them from HP Racing. My girlfreind did some work for them so I got them for almost nothing.She worked for the designer of the wheels and he made these. I think there around $900.00 for the set without tires. Thats pretty good for a 19inch wheels with that dish.
