  • 50mm or 56mm

    http://www.wheelreplicas.com/c5.htm

    These are the ones I'm looking at:
    18x9.5 5x4.75 +50* or +65mm Chrome $1079

    So four(4) 18x9.5 Chrome 18inch C5's. I think it's 50mm, although I dont even know what that means but I think I recall people saying buy 50mm.

    I've got a 1999 Pontiac firebird w/ground effect's and lowered 1.2 inch's in the front, and 1.7 in the back.

    Would you recommend 18's?? or go with 17's? Pics in the sig, looking for recommendations. Anyone know any places online cheaper then 1079?

    Thanks guys.

    Would 54mm work, like these on Ebay??

    Has anyone bought rims off ebay. 899.00 is a steal, that's only like 1100 Canadian :D

      Those would look sweet on ur car. 275-35-18 tires all the way around, or 275-40 rear and 275-35 front will work fine.

        You could go as low as +38mm and be fine. The lower the number numerically, the more the wheel will stick out.
