That looks real good. Someone should produce a spoiler like that ready to bolt on a ta/firebird.

I know, I'd like it a bit lower too but that causes all kinds of trouble that's just not worth the effort (tires rub, exhaust scrapes, 9 inch bangs the floor, etc.).

D-Force... What I liked about them besides the looks is the weight--saved about 10 lbs. off each corner. These are made for BMWs so check out the BMW Wheels thread. These fit fine and have worked fine so far (ran 'em up to 145). Also never seen them on an F-body before either, although they are probably out there.

Size Weight
15x7 13.0 lbs
17x8 15.5 lbs
17x8.5 16.2 lbs
17x9 16.4 lbs

18x9 17.8 lbs
18x9.5 18.4 lbs
18x10 18.8 lbs

Funny story about the wheels. If you buy these, don't tell the Discout Tire guys they are for an F-body or they won't mount them. They knew I had Pontiac and when I took the wheels and tires in they asked what they were going on! The guy at the desk asked if these were going on my Bonneville. LOL Then two different guys in the shop were asking me what they were for--and wouldn't drop it. I finally told them they were for my 2003 M3 (which I've never owned). Then they lectured me about some people trying to run these on GTOs. It was almost as bad as when Pep Boys refused to put a set of half inch taller tires on my wife's minivan--because it's not the factory size!!!

Bingo! I like the stock too, just not as well. I always liked the rear end of Camaros better and the front end of the TAs. The Heritage TA is what gave me the idea to do this. It all comes down to taste. We're just lucky we don't all have the exact same thing or this site would be really boring.
