i was thinking about getting the 5 spoke chrome c5 replica or firehawk wheels. Will these slow me down, if so how much?

Definately get the 17's instead of the 18's, and yes, they will slow you down. How much with the 17's and normal tires? It depends... but... say... .2 in the the quarter?

Don't forget about the guys w/ the 15" steel wheels. [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img] I hate those. Luckly I don't have those. I think they're only 7" wide. That's gotta suck.1994 Chevrolet Camaro 3.4L A4 (160hp 200tq)<br />2006 Nissan 350Z 3.5L M6 (300hp 260tq)Comment

If it is heavier then it will slow you down.
If it has more rolling resistance (wider) it can slow you downRace car - gone but not forgotten - 1997 firebird V6

Don't bother with 17's or even replica's for that matter.
Wait a while and save up for some lighter weight 18's. The difference in apperance is WAY more noticable and you'll be happier. ;)Red \'99 3.8<br />Induction: SLP Cold Air Intake, K&N Air Filter, Whisper Lid<br />Ignition: Taylor Spiro-Pro Wires, Bosch Platinum 2 Plugs<br />Suspension: Power Slot Rotors, Hawk HPS Pads, Mille Miglia MM11-2 18x9, Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 245/40-18Comment

I’m new. I actually don’t own a Camaro or firebird. I do have a 2000 Camaro 3.8 fly by throttle and 4l60e. This is installed in a 1980 Triumph TR7...2 weeks ago -
