Im looking at possibly getting some custom forged wheels. They can make them to the specs I want but not sure what back spacing and all ill want. I was thinking about 9" wide wheels in the front and 10" in the back. I also want it where the rear and front wheels are not sticking out just even. Any one have any ideas or should I take some measurements?

Thanks,
John

On my Red SS the 9.5" front have a 38 mm offest and my 10.5" wide rears have a 38 mm offset too.

I guess I would ask the question of what diameter are you looking at and what about tire sizes?

I was going to go with 18's thinkin about a 275 tire on front and a 285 or 295 on the back.

Mine are 18/9.5 frt. =+48, 18/10.5 rear=+42. Look on my F-Quick link, a couple side shots. No issues and thier about as flush as you can get.

Do you have any pictures from the rear and what size tires you running?

295's not a clear shot but they don't stick out at all. Hell your close enough to come see for yourself!

Yeh I might have to come check them out. Im could either monday or next weekend if there is a nice day. From the pictures it is hard to tell almost looks like I might like them tucked a little more but I might have to see. What size are the front tires?

275's

Im thinkin I might be happier with a 9" wide in the front and 10" in the rear and run like a 275 up from and a 285 out back. I seen that combo with some ttII's and liked it alot but didnt know the offset's or anything. Your car looks beautiful though.

Search for SS LS1 pics. Black SS. I got my offsets from him and you might get a better shot from his pics on how much they stick out.

Your also gonna need to think about how much lip you want cause thats gonna effect your offset too.

And the offset will affect the lip too right so Im more worried about the offset then if there is a decent lip left over thats cool.

I was looking at Boze wheels im sure if I call them they might know the offsets I want. I talked to them b4 and they said have had some measurements but wanted some opinions on here too .

And for comparison:

18" x 9.5" with a 275/35ZR18 front 38 MM offset:




18" x 10.5" with a 295/35ZR18 rear also 38 mm offset"




Over all:
