Hey yall. Im new to this site and just recently bought a 94z. First thing I want to do is get rid of those disgusting wheels. Ive already read tons of forums on wheels for fbodys and theres a lot of peoples opinions out there that I can appreciate. My budget is around $1k-1.5k with tires included. I want something that looks good but wont break the bank. I wont go to the strip all that often so nothing to serious there. I like the look of CCW Classics and Forgestars but I have no idea how to actually buy the wheels of off those sites. They are really janky. Im going to be doing a staggered look as well, probably 17x9 in the front and 18x10 in the rear. Not sure on tire sizes though they are kind of confusing to me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
P.S. pics of your builds would be awesome as well!
P.P.S if I posted this 4 other times Im sorry its not appearing for me.
Unless you can find a great deal on a used set, you aren't going to get CCW's or probably anything else for your budget. Front 275/40/17's and rear 295/35/18's will cost you $250-350 each. Maybe look for some oe repro Vette wheels with tires as a package; might be able to get some for $1500. Good luck
How about 18s all the way around? These are replicas in Camaro offset. Less than 3,000 miles on the package. Ill let them go for $400 just to get them out of the garage.
The wheels are not OEM, but high-quality aftermarket in the proper offset for the F-body cars. The entire package consists of (2) 18 x 10.5 chrome wheels with center caps and chrome lugnuts with 295/30/18 Yokohama tires and (2) 18 x 9.5 chrome wheels with center caps and chrome lug nuts with 275/40/18 Yokohama tires. The wheels have less than 3,000 miles on them. There is absolutely zero curb rash and/or imperfections on the wheel surfaces. The tires are not worn, but rather older. The complete package was purchased new by myself. My car currently has 9,000 original miles, and these wheels were installed at the 6,000 mile mark. I am the original owner, and the wheels have never been on a gravel road and the car has never been driven in the rain. The only reason I am selling them is I went to 35th Anniversary wheels.
For some reason I cant send PMs atm. I live in Urbana, Illinois. A bit far from you. Do you think we could ship them or is that gonna be a problem for you?
Since you're on a budget how about Torque Thrust 2s? Yes I know they are gonna played out on all muscle cars, but you can even get a nice deal on a set of 4 of the Torque Thrust M chrome ones.

OE wheels are great looking and they will definitely fit your Budget I just got c7 Zr1 rims for $700 and theyre amazing
I got a set of ZR-1 OE replicas for my Camaro direct from OEWheels about two months ago for just under $1,500 shipped. 17x11 for the rear and 17x9.5 for the fronts. The tires are 315/35/R17 and 275/40/R17's respectively. They are Toyo all-seasons. I was really trying to keep to a budget and needed tires anyway and hated the base model wheels the previous owner stuck on the car. It was kind of the best bang for my buck while buying everything new. All seasons aren't really what I was after, (winters here are very mild) but they should hopefully keep me from breaking the rear end on the damn thing and I'm not taking the car to the track anytime soon.

I think I saw some in the marketplace section of this site for $2,500. One of the wheels had been curbed pretty hard too and the tires weren't brand new or anything.
