C5 Z06 definitely looks the best, but it's too common, in my opinion. I've seen too many of them running around.

C6 might look a little out of place, but they do look big. I would say C5. Def not the Black face ones, something looks off there.

Middle ones don't look right on your car - Chevy rims on your pontiac. I'd go with the last picture but I can't really see what the rim looks like just that it's black.

all of them are good choices...however i just think pictures dont do them justice, and its really hard to tell from just pictures. They all look much better in person

I like the top ones as well. The five-spoke design looks very clean on the Trans Am.

I will be using 15 x 10 salad shooters with some hoosiers out back this summer for the track, but i dont want to get killed or loked up, i just want to look good on the street. I can either go old school, or take it in a new direction.

If my TL wasnt such a POS with 4 POS trannies, Then maybe i wouldnt have traded that POS for this POS. And This POS will run high 11's, get me around and last another 100,000 miles with minimum upkeep. Guys like you make car forums suck. I cant even come on here asking for advice without a cock like you messing up a perfectly good thread. For everyone that posted, thanks, your input is appreciated and will help me make a decision, and for spdy0001(speedy huh, i want to see you keep up with me ) go f yourself. And if this were a joke, it was in bad taste, I take pride in my car, and get more copliments and respect than when i had the TL
