Gen 2 Wheel Size
 
2 Attachment(s)
Trying to figure out the sizing for my 71' Camaro. I've decided on using 18" wheels and the wheels I like have a reverse lip and are available with any offset but in widths 7,8,9,10,or12" I was thinking about 245's up front and 275's rear. Not quite sure on profile though. The car has stock wheelwells, I can roll the lips if required. I want it to have a nice lowered stance. Anyone have any advice for me? here's the wheels I am looking at..(but in a semi gloss black center)

Those sizes will fit no problem.
What color is your car?

Thanks for the help guys! The wheels are by a company called J-line, they average around $725 each, (in custom color - anthrasite -(semi gloss black)) My car is going to be that light blue that you would see on a newer toyota fj, with an anthrasite stripe on the hood and trunk. (matches the wheel centers) I will post some pics of the build as soon as I can.

here's the blue...
