Honestly I don't remember the front. 58mm on the back but I think the front is 54mm. I ordered them from LM Performance as they were already setup for F-Bodys.

Again, thanks for the compliments! Except for a couple of comments the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive.

Your pics where the sole reason I went with the same setup. They look great!

Looks like you did some shopping around too, those two places ended up the best pricing for me also.

It looks nice, what a difference from stock. The offsets are little too much positive for me in my opinion, kind a put the wheel/tire sucked in a little too much, otherwise looks good overall.

Thread from the dead. Wheel size and tire size is in his post.

The wheels are 18x9.5 on the front and 18x10.5 (from LM Performance) on the rears. The tires are the Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta in 35/275 front, 35/295 rear (from Tomzwheels).
