Good choice with the 18/19 setup. Depending on the wheel, it can look very sharp when lowered. What wheel did you choose?

We've done it guys! We've shown him the way!


Seriously man, from your first post in this topic to this one, you've come a long way. You went from wanting thug-wannabe wheels and lambo doors to truly being educated about the topic. Congrats on gaining a true sense of classy style. You now know that simply larger wheels does not make up the gap in the wheel well and that it's all about suspension. Plus you no longer want 20"+ wheels that would look ghetto on an F-body. 19s can be pulled off in rare occasions and the wheels you've pictured there are a fine specimen. With the amount of money you've been given to put towards wheels, your choice of the CCW 505A's is right on target. Lightweight, classy-looking, simply badass wheels is what they are. The quality on them is amazing and you won't regret it. Just please take care of them, be careful with them (stay away from curbs, for the love of God!), and make sure to keep them clean.

Congrats!

Yea don't get 20's, those will be way to freakin big. It won't look right. I've got the 18" Z06 wheels and they are pretty good. Pics are in the sig.

GREAT choice on the CCW's... most people on here would die for a set of those in 18/19 combos... that should look awesome, especially if you lower the car
