Default Pic request Trans ams with C5 DD

I need some pics of trans ams running 17X9.5" C5 DD wheels all the way around. Mainly wanting a shot from the back of the car. I searched through the 100 pages of pics, but couldn't find what I was looking for. Planning on buying the polished finish, and running 275/40/17's all the way around.

Yeah I saw those pics. What I am looking for is a pic directly behind the car. Like Spiers profile pic, but from behind instead of in front. I already ordered the wheels so it really doesn't matter anymore though.
Why does it really matter if it "took me like 10secs to find this". I was looking for a specific picture. I get on this board to learn, and enjoy myself. Not to argue..

Here's some VERY nice pics but not directly rear pics.

https://ls1tech.com/forums/multimedi...ifes-hawk.html

EDIT: Those are 10.5 rears so yours won't really look that wide/beefy from the rear especially with 275/40's. I hope that's not what you were going for with that setup. :/

Looks good. Yeah i figure mine won't look very beefy, but i just dislike the C6's i have. Also, don't care for the tire prices on 19's. I will post pics when I get the new wheels on.

In a picture from directly behind wouldn't they look just like any other TA with a 275/40/17...... you wouldnt be able to see the wheels.

Well yeah, I was just worried about the wheels and tires being tucked into the fender and looking kinda "wimpy", but they look fine. I should've worded the post better.

yeah, in the future i might do something like that, but for now i am just trying to get away from what ive got. I can buy 4 new 17" tires cheaper than i can buy 2 cheap brand 19's. Also wanting some wheels with some shine.
