Could you post a pic from the side showing both wheels, looking straight at them?

I voted for the 505As. I tend to like more spoke wheels for T/A's and less spoke wheels for the Camaro's (SP500s).


Peace,
Craig.

The 500s look better on the Vette as well.

Wheels came on Friday These things are beautiful, pictures just can't describe them

Anyhow, I have been busy cutting up the bump stops and got them to fit, now all I have to do is roll the lip and pound in the wheel wells and everything should be reall good.

My GF even said they look hot and she loves how they stick out a little

Here are some teasers

335 is too wide for a 11wide wheels. You need atleast a 12 or 13wide. I dont think a 315 on a 18 would clear in the rear. It would rub a lot.

My guess is they are both probably around the same weight...both leight as hell

as compared to stock, I would say the aftermarket wheel SETUP is heavier becuase you're not putting on a tiny *** tire anymore, you're putting on a monsterous tire that is heavy!

My 295-35-18 GS-D3s weight 31lbs each, my 18x11s weigh about 22lbs each
(shipping weight was 53lbs on the box)
