rim question? Im looking at some rims and Im wondering if its better to have the same size all the way around or bigger in the back then the front. I have a 2001 trans am WS6 so I think my stock sizes are 275 40 17 and the width is 9.5 I think. and this is for all the way around (these are the stock WS6 rims). If I was to get a bigger width rim in the back would it fit? or is it best to stay the same size all the way around? thank you. im looking at getting rims very shortly so please respond.
i would say same size all around if your going to be lowering the car, just so you dont have to do any bfh modds on the inner fender. but on the other hand i have tt2's 17x9 front and 17x11 in the rear sitting on stock susension and i am happy with the way it looks and hooks up at stop lights. either way u go i am sure you wont be dissapointed. hope this helps...

The 17" x 9.5" Black Corvette Z06 style will fit on all four corners. The 18" x 10.5" with the 58 mm offset will fit, but will more than likely require some inner wheel well massaging, or run a spacer with longer studs.
