315/30/18s are alot of money. I recently looked them up and I was shocked compared to a 295/35/18

Prices on 18's seems to have shot up the last month or so... I was shocked at how much they went up from spring.

Prices on all tires have gone up, not just specific sizes. Rubber is made with petroleum products ya know.

Very true. I only look at 18s though as that's what I need. Lol

Pulled my satin black F14s off my Corvette to use as a track wheel for the Camaro, quick pic from Saturday:



For some reason they look wayyy better in person than they do in the pic. Sizes are 18x10 and 18x11

Fronts are a custom offset: +48 and rears are just +55. Fits perfect

Seems to be perfection, the satin black looks phenomenal on your silver SS. Damn this is a good looking wheel on the Camaro. What are the widths of the front and rears?

Those look great on that silver Camaro. Never wanted different wheel on my car until today.
