Thanks for all the compliments, it was asked earlier about offsets, after digging up some info off my old comp. the offsets are +52 front and +54 for the rears.
I pretty much did a full resto on these to get them to where they are today. I was kickin around the idea of fully polished inner barrels with gloss black centers and lips but polishing barrels is a bitch and a half by hand.
Heres what the looked like before and during.

Before:

thanks man. Sorry for the late reply, been on vacation.
Fronts are 18x9s with 245s, rears are 18x11s with 335 bfgs. Thinks the rears are a 50mm offset not sure about the fronts.

I've got a mini-tubbed F-Body and have 13" wide wheels on the rear with 345 tires. The limiting factor with a mini tub becomes the LCAs.
