I do too. I would really like to see a side angle but I cant be picky cause 1) I dont have photoshop and 2) pictures seemed limited.

Ok here you go...



IMO if you go this route, it definitely needs lowered too.

God that looks fresh. Tran your the man! If I go with classics Id be able to lower quicker than expected because Id ditch the BBK and put money aside for Konis/Stranos.

Classics fail UNLESS the offsets and diameter are right.

505s are solid.....as long they're 18s

Its going to be 18s for sure. Im not sure what CCWs standard sizes are for Fbodies. I think the sizes are 18x9.5, 18x11 but Im not positive and have no idea on the offsets.

Didn't read the entire thread so I don't know if you made your decision.

But 1st I will say what a tough choice, I was in a similiar situation and decided on the 505As. One word of wisdom is these are a bitch to clean so remember that when you are choosing. The 500s would be the easiest to clean followed by the 505As...The 500s aren't as flashy in my opinion though

Also when I ordered from CCW, they told me 2 weeks as well, but I remember coming home one day and thye were in my driveway well before the 2 week timeline.

I've got 18x10s up front and 18x11s out back
Too lazy to confirm if they still make these sizes

Ive seen your car sir and its beautiful. Im aware of the cleaning aspect. Thats a big part in why I decided against mesh wheels like the FM10s or Senekas along with other factors. I do like the 500s but I feel like the 505s just fit a Trans Am perfectly. I like the classics because their different and with a titanium face all I would have to polish is the lips. Your right about being a tough choice, not only because their all nice wheels but their also not cheap.

Yes its NBM. Was something I wanted to see if it looked ok. Polished brings out the color of the car better. So now going to strip the anodize stuff off to make them shine.
