That's exactly what I was thinking. But yeah, 18's will be awesome.

Yeah I guess I didnt look at the bolt pattern... So thats pretty gay. Now Im back to step one looking for 18s... and Im not getting my deal for $700 anymore. Weaaaak. That ruined my night.

actually 5x114 fits mustangs, and 5x115 fits grand ams.

anyway i dont like eagle 077s. eagle 185s are gorgeous. loochy has em, but they only come in 17s, and i believe are now discontinued. i have a pair at work in the showroom...but theyre 5x114.

save for 18s though. like mentioned above, with gfx you gotta lower it and go for 18s with low profile tires, go all out show.

I cant lower it, thats out of the question. But I want 18s Ive decided. Now Im dissapointed that I didnt realize those wouldnt fit... I have no set plan for getting them anymore... so now Im possibly looking at somthing else unless a deal comes my way... which it wont, since those rims are like ****** unheard of now.

400$ was enough to get my c5 wheels.....but another 450 $ for tires compared to using the ones i have

you are going to be looking to spend just over or under 1000$ i bet.....i had 4 different wheels and tire combos that were priced between 950-1150$ tires and wheels

Yeah I know it will be over 1000 unless I find them used.

The rims are 180 a piece on ebay, so 720 for those shipped. Then Id have to get tires.

Thats why Im not sure if Im willing to pay that much for wheels. Thats a lot of money to drop in my car, since I have that much, I might as well save up for a turbo. I dunno what Im gonna do now. There were a couple people, one was from there that talked about selling me their eagle alloys, so Ill see what happens.

eh.. like others have said i just think the eagle 077's are played out esp on camaros and they were kind of the cheap way out to start with (which im starting to think is what you were lookin for anyway)

but if i had some suggestions it would be to check out some of ADR's stuff they make some nice wheels for good prices..
