Could you guess from this picture? Help!!!

Could you guess whar size rims/tires and suspension mods were used on this 96 Camaro SS to make it look like that? I'm not sure if the same rims and tires were used in both pictures because this guy changed the rims/tires so many times on his car, he's on car domain I asked him but never got a response. Here's his car domain link : http://www.cardomain.com/ride/461960
How low was it lowered? Do you need adjustable setups to get to this type of an amazing look? The gap between the fenders and the tires on front and rear are simply equal, I would really like to know. Thanks a lot guys.

Second pic is 17" x 11" wide ZR-1 replicas with 315 tires out back, assume 17" x 9.5" front with 275/40ZR17.

First pic is just AWEFUL!

Being as low as it looks, I'd say Eibach Sportlines, too low IMHO . . .

I agree on the 1st pic. The second pic looks like sportline springs or another brand that drops the car more than it needs to be with a 17x11"/315 combo.

Not just too low, the Sportlines are WWAAAYYY too soft, with almost no travel.

That is a REAL BAD, almost dangerous combo. OK for a never driven show car, BAD for a daily driven car from which you expect ANY kind of handling. FUGGETABOUT "launch" from them, if you are concerned about that at all.
