Default Tire/Rim suggestion

Hey guys,
I am lookin at the Black C6R Rim....


Should I go with the 19" x 10" out back with a 295/35-19 BFG T/A KDW-2, or the 18" x 10.5" out back with the 315/30/18 BFG Drag Radial? The fronts will have 275/35-18 BFG T/A KDW-2's......Fenders will be rolled....and I have spacers if needed, they are the one's that LETHL_SS had...the 1.25" Hub Centric's I believe...

those wheels look pretty sexy. personally, id go with the 18x10.5 out back. i think 19's look a smidge too big for these cars. and go with the drag radials.

18x10.5 is the largest I'd go on these cars. Anything taller would look like something from the hood. These rims are awesome. Do you guys think they would look good on a maroon Trans Am too?

i say 18x10.5 would look good. the 19x10 might look a little too tall.
