yeah i think my Z06 motorports rims are a 56mm front and 58mm rear offset..something along those lines...anyways....the rear rims will rub on the bump stops when your axle is fully extended. an adjustable pan-hard can help fix some of that... also the "BFH" mod will have to be done in the rear...that's the "Big Effin Hammer" mod...if you're lookin at your drivers side...you're gonna have to "adjust" the wheelwell at about the "9 o'clock" position it's really not all that big of a deal...fronts will fit fine though

*edit* almost forgot.... a 275/40r17 will look good on the fronts...295/35r18 looks KILLER on the back!

i have a dinky 255 on my fronts just cause i really wanted the kDW2 tires that i got...and 255 was the widest they make for a 17" rim....

I got 17x9.5 front and 18x10.5 rears, and my car is lowered too.. Ya i had to cut the bumpstops out, and use the BFH mod..Im currently running 295x35x18 in the rear and im gonna be going with a 305x35x18..so i may need to do some more hammering.

the only down side of the BFH mod is that some people don't want to take a 5 pound sludge and start to bash their car up...personally...my car has a good amount of mods and i'm not afraid to make my car "not stock" as it's far from it already..... however...my parents have a 99 30th anniversary Trans Am.... it's in mint condition and completly stock and blablabla.... with a car like that i WOULD NOT! wanna do the BFH mod...but my 2 cents would say it's not a big deal
