American Racing wheels are classic and timeless. After doing a little bit of research, I knew the TTM's had to be the first real modification I made to my new Camaro. The 315/35/17 BFG drag radials are massive. I actually have BFG's on all four corners. The fronts are stock size 275/40/17. The ride is great, much better than the MT ET streets and Goodyears the car came with.
If anyone is on the fence about the American Racing wheels, take it from me, they make the appearance of the car. The wheels/tires are not cheap, but worth every penny. I was lucky enough to purchase the set from a member here for a very good price. Nothing like members helping members! I hope you enjoy the photos.

Ok - these look great.
Are these ART wheels the 17x10.5 in 44 offset rims? If not are these the 17x11 x 45 offset rims?
Have you considered these for the fronts too?

Robert... I'm very new to the LS cars so please pardon my ignorance. If I remember correctly, the rears are 17x11 with a 45 offset. I like the stance on the car too much to change to bigger front tires. Thanks for the kind words. I sent you a PM.

...OK looks great - how about the front wheels?
Are these 17x10.5 44 offset wheels or are these 11 inch rims also; I did not think 11 inch rims were designed to handle a 275 width tire?
I thought the ABS system gets confused if you run 35 apsect tires on the rear and 40 aspect tires in front... are you experiencing any ABS issues?
Thanks....
