Got a killer deal too after price was misqouted.... $188 ea/ $10 shipping. Reg $218 from www.hoosiertirewest.com
Wow...that's cheap!!! I assume those are 18" tires. Do you know which Corvette wheels I can try and hunt down that will fit the SS?
thanks

hmmm...must be running a 17" since I don't see any 18s on that site.

I have a set of used C5 Z06 18x10.5 OEM wheels with Hoosier drag radials on them. I think I have about 25passes on them but I will dig my slips to know how many exactly. wheels are black. tires still have some life left on them. I believe they will work on a camaro with no spacers but I am not 100% sure. we had some 10.5x18 replicas C6 Z06 wheels on a camaro without a problem. but not sure if the offset and everything was the same or not.

they are OEM wheels so should be lighter than Replicas.

Yep, 17" Weld Racing rims. Pretty much 2 choices, M&H 325/45R17 or Hoosier 28x10/17.

Don's are 18", not sure if he sold them. They have the proper offsets and are the real rims - not knock offs. On the Bandimere test-n-tune event page http://www.facebook.com/events/367371910007742/

Dang, that sounds like fun. I'll just be getting the rear suspension put back in that weekend and then alignment hopefully after Halloween.

If anyone hears of someone trying to sell 17" wheels (welds or bogarts) let me know, also, if anyone is looking for some parts off of my car, I'll be taking the entire susension out for starters, plus engine stuff, give me a PM if interested.

Knockoff or not, least of my worries...just some drag wheels. Not looking to win a car show at the drag strip. lol

Not so much the car show..... they're alot lighter, so better for drag racing and quick acceleration.

yes slightly.... getting New Mast LS7 heads, a slightly bigger cam also just got my quick time bell housing. DSS drive shaft with alum couplers, Trans mounts, RPM diff (stock gears). dropping the compression from 14.0 to ~12.0 to 1. that way I can run pump gas if I wanted to. we are hoping to make the same or more power with less compression. we will find out soon

Nice - quick time bell housing would be nice, but WOULD BE A full tranny rebuild for me.... might as well wait. Are you going wider and/or taller on the slicks?
