Yeah I mean they really are a good looking wheel, especially for the price. A clean/simple5 spoke is hard to beat on any type of muscle car IMO..

Let us know how those 295s look. I ran 275 on my 10.5s back when I was broke and they where stretched, and provided no rim protection hints the powder coating. 315s are the way to go. Hope they work out.

Anyone running the 18x10.5 on all 4 corners? Thinking this is what I'll do if there are no clearance issues.

Thanks man! And yeah the front is pretty low. I haven't driven it much since lowering, trying to decide if I wanna raise it up a bit. Only problem is my drag wheel will have a big gap in the fendor if I do. They have more of a gap now than I want but I'm not going any lower than this on the street wheels. The rears have a spcer on them and yes they are 315 Falkens.

Paintless dent repair, he will take out the tail light and get it out from the backside.

Is the paint broken?
