I am seriously thinking about putting a set of chrome y2k Corvette rims (17" front/18" back) on my Red WS6. If anyone has a set of these on a Trans Am, Please post some pics. Thanks.

I have chrome Y2K C5 rims on my Pewter TA. they are 18x9.5's on Falken 265/35/18's (really ought to be 275's though)

I am pretty sure now that Im going to buy a set of Y2K's. I just need to decide would what look better, 17" front and 18" back or 18" all the way around.... What do you guys think?

I have the same wheels and a Pooter TA like Snootch.

I was thinking that too. I saw a pic of a Pewter WS6 with Y2K's 17" in the front and 18" in the back. With an extreme eibach sport line lowering kit the smaller wheels in the front give it more of a drag car/muscle look. I guess I'll see what I think of that and if it sucks then Ill just go and get 18's in the front.

Well I finally got my Y2k wheels and put on a set of Eibach sportline springs. I am actually glad that I got 17s in front and 18s in the back because it has a much better stance with the 17's in the front. Ill post some pics in the next day or so.
