Last year I bought a set of c5 rims and tires, the rims are 17.5's and the tires read 255/40/17. I know that Ive made a mistake in not getting 18's for the back or even 18's all the way around. But do you think there might be a way to buy a taller tire? Something to just fill out the wheel well? Without going to highwall like the crap looking stock 50 or 55's. Also a body was in mind, Any advice is helpfull, thanks

17.5"s??? How exactly did you get those...I think you have something screwed up. Your tires say XXX/17-XX which means 17"s. Taller tires will throw off your speedo if you want to get them. 18" wheels will not "fill" the wheel well either...the size of the tire is what determines the "fill" factor. Most people with 18"s get the same diameter of tire as stock so the speedo isn't off. Another thing you might want to do...Take off that wing.<a href=\"http://www.onid.orst.edu/~waltejam/\" target=\"_blank\">98 Bright Red Camaro</a><br />Too many mods to list....check my website

well, it is the appearance section, so people are of course going to throw in their appearance opinions, be it on the wing or tire [img]smile.gif[/img]
anyway, you might get more help on this in suspension.
