What rims to get for a blk TA? I have around $1200-$1500 to play with for rims and tires, but have no clue what rims to get. I like the drag look but my car is a street car with h/c/i and a stock ten bolt and probably will just be kept as a street car,so I dont really have a need for the 15x10. I would prefer 17x11's or I would take an 18x10 some prices and pic's of rims on a black ta or camaro would be a great help.

got c6 wheels on mine. im a big fan of c5 z06 wheels on T/As. you're gonna have to figure out your priorities for a wheel. depending on if you are most concerned with size, that will limit your style and finish, or if you're mostly concerned with style, and so on... 17x9.5 all the way around or up front only and 17x11 in the back is popular and fits with no issues, only for ZR1s though, otherwise you will be looking mostly at 18x9.5 or 18x10. mine are OEM vette sizes, 18x8.5 front and 19x10 rear. good luck

Honestly, how many good aftermarket rims are out there, that are the correct bolt pattern, offset, and are wide enough for most people's tastes for our cars out there, while still being a good price? Not many. And I'm still failing to see everyone's problem with OEM knock-off wheels. They're a good price, they look good, and they're actually made for our cars.

You can fit a 295 tire on my rears which is plenty of wide enough for me.. I see no reason to go with a 315. If you absolutely HAD to, you could get them widened.. Believe that runs around 200-300 bucks.. So you have a rim as wide as you want and it isn't like everything else out there.
I'm not saying all OEM rims look bad, but most don't compare to a nice aftermarket rim. RPM makes some nice cheap rims along with TSW and a few others.
