Holy Crap, thats your car? I've had that car as my BG for about 4 months. That thing is mint!

See that right there is a perfect example of why 18's are perfect on the fbodys.

I went from stock 16's to chrome zr-1's 17x9.5/17x11......now i got chrome z06 wheels 17x9.5/ 18x10.5 , and its the best looking tire/wheel combo ive ever had.

Personally anything bigger than 18 is not a muscle car wheel

How do you guys get traction with wheels that big. I thought the bigger wheels you go with the harder is gonna be to hook up. I could be wrong though.
