I would look in the gallery on LS1 tech for general drag wheels.

... we have a drag wheel gallery specifically for our Bogart wheels which are the lightest direct fit wheels for you car. The link is listed below my signature.

15x10" rears with a 7.5" BS
LOTS of caliper grinding.

15x3.5" fronts with 1.75" BS
5/8 spacer required to avoid caliper grinding.
