* 4 - 17x9.5 - You will have 17x9.5 rims on all four corners, easy to rotate and tires are cheapers

* 2 - 17x9.5 and 2 - 18x10.5 - 17x9.5 in the front and 18x10.5 in the back. You wont be able to rotate tires and tires will be more expensive compared to getting 17x9.5

* 2 - 17x8.5 and 2 - 17x9.5 - 17x8.5 in the front and 17x9.5 in the rear. Wont be able to rotate, turing radius will be good up front

* 2 - 17x8.5 and 2 - 18x9.5 - 17x8.5 in the front and 18x9.5 in the rear, wont be able to rotate tires

* 2 - 18x9.5 and 2 - 18x10.5 - 18x9.5 up front and 18x10.5 in the back. Wont be able to rotate and tires are verey expensive. I just spent $600 on two tires for the rear

I have 18x9.5 in the front with 275/35-18 and 18x10.5 with 295/35-18.

It will take more gas to get the 18's moving compared to 17's

Only ones I have. Not a big fan of black wheels on red cars. That camaro has TT2s that are powercoated black.



Quick Reply: RED Camaro & T/A's with black rims. Anyone?
