Well i finally am getting rid of the 13 year old Salad Shooters. I been tinking bou this for a long time. I was gonna do racing wheels (telstar fats and skinnies) but decided since i am not racing the car all the time, i wanted a good looking show car wheel. Also drivng around on ET's and skinnies will suck if i get caught in the rain and i dont wanna wear out race tires on the street. SO>>> i got a set of 17's C6 Z06 Hyper Silver wheels with 255/40/17 Sumitomo HTRZII.

Thanks! yeah, it has LS1 car Eibachs all around. i am lowering the rear about 1/2 more inch this week. The nose is pretty damn low now, so i dont think i be going much more.front whell gap is 1.5 inches and rear is 2.25. 1/2 inch more in the rear wil level it out. The tires are also 255/40/17 and are Sumitomos, Thy are about .4 inches smaller in diameter than stock size.

The car rides like a brick on wheels, LOL... actually is seems exactly the same and it did before, just lower. The shocks are stock replacements from NAPA. This will change very soon though. It isnt any more noisey than before. I have some ploy bushing parts coming, so it will probally get worse untill i lube the crap outta them.

Well un fortunatley the rims ae 17 x 8.5 and 275 tire is not reccomended on anything under 9 inch wide. i got some 275 DR's on the way on some really light wheels
