Okay, I'm for sure getting a set of TT2's for my Pewter trans am 01' for christmas.

Was curious though, what is the most common, or the best looking offset dimensions for these rims?

They look good with deep look, but not sure what dimensions they are...

I plan on getting 17x9.5 in the front and 17x11 in the back...

I've heard that getting the back wheels slightly deeper than the front looks very nice.

Well anyways feel free to give me your opinions, and if possible post some pics of the set up your talking about.

Also forgot one thing, I'm not a huge track guy atm just an occasional street race and DD, car is not lowered, pure stock actually. Will i have problems with the 315 tires in the back rubbing the fenders?

For the F-Car, there is only one offest of the 17" wheels . . .

46 mm offset for bout the 9.5" and 11" wide units.

Running 315's typically does introduce some issues with clearance, easpecially when lowered.

When you say introduce some issues, if im not planning on lowering the car, what should i worry about? Some people say i will be fine but what should i do to prevent the worst to happen?

you shouldnt have any problems if you are still with stock suspension... but it might depend on what 315 you put on. for example my nittos are perfectly fine (they are extremely narrow), but when i put on my BFG KD im expecting a much tighter fit. the 275 KD is almost the exact size has the 315 NittoDR! wtf

you should be fine though, BFH and rolling the fenders is very easy to do if you have any issues. Also an adjustable panhard bar can help you out.

u definitely want to lower your car especially if u go with good looking rims like the TT2. its just if u go with the 17x11's in the rear most people run 315. if u run the tire that big you will have rubbing and fitment issues.

okay well i had a guy pm me saying that if i get nitto 555R's i will be fine and wont have to worry about it... is there anything i lose with these tires compared to other 315 tires... keep in mind im going to be on street and its my DD. I'm running stock power... so ...

When you guys say rolling fenders... you mean the tire rubs the fiberglass frame right? How exactly are you guys pulling that off with stock power and stock suspension.. it seems like its not powerful enough to squat that low..

I am lowered on BMR springs, adj. suspension.. Plan on going 315 MT DRs on the rear with a 17x11 TT2.
Will rolling the fenders and BFH remedy everything?

BFH and a fender roll should take care of it. My TTMs on a 315 fit fine with some BFH and a roll and I'm lowered with a prokit.

Not in my case, stock suspension, 17x11's and Sumo 315's NO issues what so ever, YMMV.

Big grif.. did you find out if yours were the correct offset for 98-02? If they are I will probably trade..

I had 11's on the rear of my old car and had no rubbing issues with 555R's but when I went to regular 555's it hit the wheelwell lip I cut it out and got a adj panhard and it was all good.
Car had lt1 eibachs on the front and stock springs with 3/4 coil cut.
Then again I heard the T/A's had more room in there from the different quarter panel design?
