Re: 19's on a lowered 2001 NBM SS Are those 19" Racing Hart M5's? If they are are you using 19"x10" s in the back? Any rubbing, what size tires, offset, etc. ? How about a pic from the side.

Re: 19's on a lowered 2001 NBM SS Ahhh yes. That is my baby's car. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0"> Her name is Alex.
He got a ton of compliments on her at WoW. I LOVE the rims and the drop sets it off- but we scraped the other day while driving on an uneven street and it sounded REALLY awful.
We need to post some rear shots so all the guys can check out my taillights.

Re: 19's on a lowered 2001 NBM SS Oh and the rims are 19 x 9.5 SSR GT3's.
The tires are rubber bands. <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">
Thanks John for the post!

Re: 19's on a lowered 2001 NBM SS Yes, they are SSR GT3s in 19x9.5.
VMOORE
They are actually BMW wheels, not F or Y body wheels. The lug pattern for an F or Y body is 5x4.75" which comes out to be 5x120.65mm. The lug pattern on my Beamer is exactly 5x120mm. I was pretty lucky. They actually fit perfectly on my SS. They are also about 7lbs lighter than my stock ten spoke chromies.
LS1mtZ
I wanted to go 19x10 in the back but it wouldn't have fit. The offset for that wheel is for an 01-02 BMW M3 at +23. When I'm done with these, I want to get 19x9.5s in the front and 19x11s in the rear. I want 275/30s in the front and 305/25 in the rear!!!! Sweeeeet!!! But it has to be precisely for an F-body.
My tires are Bridgestone Potenza S03 275/30zr19s all around. The tires are the same overall diameter as my stock 275/40zr17s. I didn't want to go with a bigger tire seeing that I lowered my car about 2 inches. I have about a 1 to 1.5 inch clearance when my wheel is fully turned. If I were to go with a 275/35zr19, it would have added another inch to my sidewall. I'm very happy with them the way they are. I can't wait till summer.
I never thought I would get so many compliments. I truly thought there would be a lot of biters. Thanks guys for all the positivity. Peace
