Chrome Ruff Racing Wheels on CGM.

[75TransAm]

Well I just got my new wheels and tires put on and please let me start by saying what a difference! I bought these off a member and I can't thank him enough! They are 18X8.5 front and 18X9.5 rear. Not sure about the offset specs but they are perfect with no rubbing! The tires are Nexan n3000 245/40/18 front and 265/35/18 rear. I possibly could have gone 275s but I wanted to play it safe. Please let me know what you think! I know chrome isn't everyone's favorite, but I think they flow with car.

On with the pics:

[gm4life]

[colt0129]

looks good man i love mine. i have the r280s. also good thing you went with the 265 tires instead of 275's cause i did 275's and had to cut the fenders!

Thank you! Now on to the power mods!

Lookn good.

Thanks Justin! I appreciate your input on wheels. This set came up and I couldn't pass it up! I am very happy and I think it flows with my shaker and paint scheme. I love the staggered look. It gives the car a more aggressive stance. As for rotating the wheels and tires, oh well... I'm use to it with having the Vettes. :)

Thanks man! I was worried that 275s would have rubbed even though I have no plans on lowering the car. So I had to play it safe and go with the 265s. I really don't want to cut or roll the rear quarters. They(280s) look great in your Avi!:)

[carOFwar]

clean setup. love the look.

[ZigZag]

Love the chrome, not a fan of the rivet look but your car looks great overall.

[PH3N0M]

[GTOGRRRR]

Thanks Zac! Do it! I love these wheels! They really changed the appearance of the car and not to mention, the ride quality improved.

[NameTaken45]

Looks great... I was looking at these before I bought my CSL's. They look just like CCW's except for the rivets... Car looks sharp!

LOLs! Thanks 45! I do feel lucky.:)

They do look like CCWs. Without the CCW price tag. If I could have afforded CCWs, I would gone with those for sure.

[pmwiggins1985]

Yeah, wheels really brought your car together.

[gumenimedo]

Thank Phillip! I am looking forward to seeing your Goat!

I was lucky to come across these. These were my first choice in a staggered set up, but I could not find them. I was also interested in the AZA-01s but also no luck. It's funny, when you are looking for something it's hard to find. When you stop looking, it falls right in front of your face and you are left with the decision to go for it or not. Glad I did! Best appearance mod on my car!:)
