Default My Friends 17x9.5 17x11 ZR1 combo on T/A

Here are the pics. The car is a 2002 Ram Air Trans Am with polished ZR1s. He had to remove the bump stops so that the 11s would clear on the back.

how do those 315 sumitomo's hook up? i was looking at those because of their insane price, but i've read they arent all that sticky.

they look awesome though! right now i'm torn between those and 315 nitto drags, the sumitomo's because of the price and look, and the drags because of the traction. i'll have 3.73's in my car on wednesday and my wheels some time this week.

I think they look great. Love the nice beefy rears.

Why is it that some peeps feel that everyone should lower thier car? I like a little space in between tire and fender. Course I also don't like dragging my *** all over town either. My car will probably never be lowered.

The lower it is the nicer a car looks. But yet again, you have 16s and don't quite understand.

wouldnt the bumper stop have cleared if the rears were put on by jacking the back up by the differential and then putting the wheels on, it should set inside the wheel once it was set back on the ground, thats how i got my old zo's to fit
