Why do corvettes have 17" in the fronts and 18" in the rear? I saw some rims I wanna get on ebay, gun metal C5 type rims. But I can't seem to find bids on on just 17" all around, they're being sold 17" and 18". Is it a good idea to just get 17" and 18"?

if you search ebay for "camaro rims" the seller moore9911 is selling a bunch of rims from the OE Factory in Sarasota, they have 17" all around. i just bought 17 and 18 and after shipping and insurance paid a little under $600. but they are there.
corvettes have 17" front and 18" rear rims mostly for the styling.<a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/id/cops_suck\" target=\"_blank\"> 2000 3.8L Camaro M5 </a> -
"Why do corvettes have 17" in the fronts and 18" in the rear?"
Because the GM engineers designed the suspension and picked tires to work with those rims. Will they work on a car not designed for them? Beats me.2000 Firebird convert, chameleon/tan, M5, Y87, TCS, BMR tower brace and panhard, KBDD sfcs, 245/50-16 GSCsComment

the bad thing about 17s up front and 18s out back is that you couldn't rotate your tires...\'99 SSM Camaro V6 M5<br />(mod list on cardomain site; too long to list here)<br /> <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/id/v6cam99\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/id/v6cam99</a>Comment
