Thanks guys, The reason I went with them is because I wanted a 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 wheel. Neither of the others mentioned above have that size right now. ( I would of had to go to a 19" wheel for that staggered fit)

Spend 200-300 bucks (Weldcraft wheel widening) and and I could go to a 10.5. Looks to be plenty of room on the back side for this.

I agree. the math says that a set of rpm 505's in 18x9 with a +20mm offset widened 2" by weldcraft or wheels america would yield a 18x11" wheel with a perfect f-body offset. I wanted to do a set up like that true bandit style (with gold centers), but the math came up to around $1700 + tires by the time I bolted them on. so I bought a set of ttII's. they are a great looking wheel for the money (much better looking than any oe style) and you don't see them on f-bodies much around here. most around here are on stockers or c5 zo6's.

I like wide wheels as much as the next guy, but I would rather them be an inch skinnier than have the same wheels as everyone else.

Any mods to get those rims on?
hey just curious if you had to do anything special to get those 285s on the rear? did you just mount them and put them on? i got a z28 and want to do the same thing. how do you lower your car?

A 285 tire is barely wider than the stock 275 tire, bro. No... no mods are needed.
