I am selling my wheels off of my Trans Am. I bought them brand new last spring. All 4 wheels are 18" I think I have 255's on front and 275's on the rear. I will have to get back to you on that. The front tires are still like new but the rears could be replaced this year. The have Dunlop Direzza DZ101's wrapped on them. I really like these tires. They are quiet and are quite sticky. I will take close up pictures this weekend. They do not even have a scratch on them. Asking $750.

Pretty sure that they have 275/35R18's front and back.

Bump for rims that I know almost for sure will make your car up to 3 seconds faster in the quarter mile!!!!!!

The wheels I was going to replace them with do not fit so I might hang on to these for a bit.

I am looking to just add the rears for now. Maybe a set of Prostars or something nice with ET Streets or MT Drag Radials. I need a fat tire on the front because I would roll the tires off the skinnies ;)

I really want them, I'll have to think about it, I'll have to get the front wheels narrowed if I get them.

Chris,

before i got into the 15" size pro stars because of more tire selection, there are 16" XP sized Pro Stars available that clear that stock brake calipers so you don't have to grind. I had them on my red '98 LS1 Camaro.

Downside is they are just a tad more expensive compared to the 15" ones, but you can still got a good assortment of e.t. streets available with them. in both 28 and 26" tire sizes. a 26x11.5 e.t. street in a 16" rim would fit your car very well and get you the hook you want. hell at that point, just get a set of chrome 16" firebird wheels and just put those on the back and keep the C5 wheels up front. would "kinda" match.
