Those look good! If I were to do aftermarket 18s, either tsw nurburgrings or forgestar f14!


But I really want the zl1 wheels as my "show" wheels. But I'm still looking

I like the f14's as well, but aren't they expensive?

They're 245/55-18's. I had them on my 18x9 wheels for quite a while.

I think 18" wheels and a drop look so nice! The big sidewall gives it an "all business" look

Wow, seriously? What do you have to look out for? As it sits right now, I don't really scrape my car at all unless it's a big speed bump and I don't take it at an angle. I know with the zl1 bumper, I need to be more cautious but under what situations do you have the most problems?

Parking garage. Level two gets me everyday. Come down the ramp very slowly and still hit.
