I paid $955 I stayed with two of my stock tires I just bought the back tires. Oh and I had to pay $60 to get them drilled to fit my car.
They don’t rub I just bought that size in the back because the wheels where staggered. All I did was just moved the break line back a little. Everything else was good.

i never saw the point in going with bigger tires on the back of a fwd car. also, with the amount they're sticking out i would think that it will kick all sorts of crap onto the side of your car and ruin the finish.
i like the rims though, good choice.

I have the stock tires from my SS stock wheels in the front.
I was looking into something different I didn’t want something every one had. I do get some of the tire dressing on my fender but that’s koo nothing a nice car wash and some wax cant fix.Plus I want that American Chevy look my car is a Chevy.

That’s the stage 3 clutch from Clutch Masters. I am looking into the stage 3 kit from GM but the whole thing about it not being smog legal; living in California the cops are hot about that. The stage 3 clutch Man that clutch is awesome
