my friend had the 18" Z06's on his red 98 z28 and they looked awesome, just like skinbrains car.

Is pewter ok? 18x9.5s all around with 275/40/18 BFG KDWs IMO, the 40 series gives you a better look at stock height vs a 35.

Forgive the headlights...

Beautiful cars and wheels guys, I especially like the 18" wheel with the 40 series tire. How do You guys think that setup will look on a stock height Trans Am?

I have a 35 sidewall on 18" black Z06's, and I think its perfect. 40 is for those 17" guys

40 series on an 18 in wheel will sit pretty high on a stock suspension I would imagine. Your adding height.
I have 18x30 in the back and 18x35 in front. I need to talk to Strano about maybe lowering (or not) a half inch or so.
