I'll be running 15x8 with 275/60/15 and some 15x4's up front. This is a budget setup detailed to look like more than they are but I think they'll look sweet once installed! I will post the hows and whys if anyone is interested ?
They're going on here:

Ahhhh ... Summit Drag-Thrusts ... they actually look good with the "gold" painted center. Do these fit the LS1 brakes without spacers or grinding? At $114.95 per wheel, this is a budget build worth looking at if they fit.

I am not too interested in grinding my brake calipers, so i think it will be Race Stars for me when the car is ready. I may have to get them one at a time and, at $180 per wheel for 15x10's delivered with lugs, they are hard to beat. That is only $30 per wheel more than the Summits (I have to pay tax on the Summits since I am in GA).

Speaking of wheels "senicalj" ... I have a set of OE chrome 17x9.5/17x11 ZR1's in the garage ready to go on my Pewter SS after the S60 is in. I guess your sig photo is what mine will look like in "street" trim. Are you stock height?
