Could you guess what size rims/tires and suspension mods were used on this 96 Camaro SS to make it look like that? I'm not sure if the same rims and tires were used in both pictures because this guy changed the rims/tires so many times on his car, he's on car domain I asked him but never got a response. Here's his car domain link : http://www.cardomain.com/ride/461960
How low was it lowered? Do you need adjustable setups to get to this type of an amazing look? The gap between the fenders and the tires on front and rear are simply equal, I would really like to know. Thanks a lot guys.

The 1st one looks like crap with so much wheel, the second looks like a 11 inch wide 17s in the rear with 315 or 335 wide rubber, yea, the 335s look awsome on theese f cars, i dont know much about the particular brands and the popular drop for them ither, i usually stay stock, i hate speed bumps as it is.

Hold on, when you lower the car and go with bigger rims, will you feel bumps more? How do you avoid that? Top of the line suspension parts or what? I still need more opinions on what size rims do you think were used, I'm thinking 20s but not sure.

Well, it is a compromise, a shorter side wall will gibe a stiffer rider with more response, a larger side wall will give more comfort, a less stiff spring will compromose a bit, but then your handleing will suffer a bit, 20s even weigh more so they do slow you down and you lose a bit of power to the ground, the thing is it all boils down to what you are looking for, if you want ugly *** 20s on a sports car go ahead if that is your thing, but if a decent wheel and all around tire package is what you want a 17 will suit you better, if full out drag is the game then you would want light weight 15s, it is all in what you look for in your desired use.

1st pic is of the 20" replicas for the 3rd gens I've seen in Summit, the 2nd ones look to be a set of 17" Zr1s, and 17x11 out back with some nice meats

ZONES89RS, where do you think the limit would be, when I say limit I mean where do you think you could enjoy both sides, comfort and look. Your points are very true by the way and make a lot of sense.
In the first picture the suspension wise look awesome, but it wouldn't look that nice if the wheels were not 20s as they would be inside the fender instead of even with it if they were lets say 17s or so. So how can you really enjoy both worlds, some comfort and some look, in your opinion.

That guy is running QA1's when I last talked to him so he can simply adjust the collar to raise or lower his car.

+1, typically I think you'll see 315/35R17 meats on the ZR1 rims in the rear and stock 275/40R17 on the front. The ZR1 rims are 11" wide rims on the rear which gives them the ability to mount a wider tire like that. Looks great and I hope to switch mine to those eventually.

I'd say 19's honestly.

And 89RS is dead on the money with the reasoning for rougher ride and power loss from big rims. I'd never go any bigger than 17s.

I know, im running a set myself. 17x9.5/11 with 315 Nittos on the rear, but I opted for some 255s up front to offset the rear a bit more
