Those look badass. I would ask how much the wheels alone cost, but I don't want to depress my self

Looks awesome! What spring/shock combo did you use to lower the car?

Thanks for all the complements. Means a lot to me. I already rolled the fenders before I installed the wheels. I figured I would more than like have to do it anyway, so I just went ahead and did it. As for shocks and springs, I'm running Eibach sportlines and Bilstein shocks. I must add that I think sportlines take a pretty bad wrap on this site. My car is not a daily driver, only sees sunny days, but I've put a couple hundred miles or so on this suspension and haven't hit the bumpstops yet and the thing seriously handles like it's on rails. However, I'll be staying away from railroad tracks as much as I can because I've bottomed out twice creeping over them at about 1 mph. Note to self: sportlines + slp lt's = about 2" of ground clearance. Haha, I guess that's the price I pay.

F-Body + SP500s =

When the Goat is paid off and I pick up an SS or Firehawk for weekend duty it's getting a set for sure. That car is flat out gorgeous man.

Are those the sizes that CCW recommend or did you order those special? Can I get 18x9F and 18x10R? The 11's are too wide for my taste

CCW makes an 18x18.5 that you could run in the front, but IMO that's too narrow. I figure if you're going to spend the money, might as well get some meats! But hey, that's just me. The rotors are from WS6store.com....and they're new too so that may be why they look so good...lol.
