98 trans am wheels 16 rear 18 front? im trying to go with some wide 16s in the rear and 18's in the front to clear a bbk. i want to go with 16x11 if possible with a 38 offset (hoping thats a flush offset? what do you guys think?) im hoping someone has this setup with some pics...up front i dont know what a good offset is and maybe 18x9.5? pics and tire sizes would really help me out! thanks guys

talk to John and I'm sure he'll know the perfect offset for that vehicle/wheel combo
just FYI, I have 36mm offset 17x11 wheels with narrow Sumitomos and even with an adjustable PHB, they still rub on the quarter panel if I hit a big enough bump (yes, fenders rolled). I assume you'll be running some type of fat slick or DR so maybe consider a slightly higher offset in the rear - 44-50mm just to be safe
