Awesome, thanks for the info guys. I apologize, I never meant to highjack your post about the wing Steve! haha. Your car really does look amazing. One of my favs on here for sure.

Anyhow, yeah, that was my next question; how does the 225/40's fill out the rim... Which you answered perfectly Thanks for the photos as well, Lbrown. Your car looks great. And clearly, the 225 flushes out the wheel very well.

My front tires are just about dead, so I plan to get the wheels when I replace the those tires. But my rears have plenty of tread on them so hopefully, I'll transfer them over. Although, seeing you guys running 265's, I'm now wondering if they will fit! They're Michelin PS2 A/S Plus 275/35's and they have the squarest, tallest side walls I have ever encountered on a UHP tire. I wonder if I can even get them on those back wheels. I'm not sure if my current 18 rear's are 10" or 9.5... Oh man. I'm going to be bumming big time if those tires don't fit. I guess I'll write Victor Equip. and see if they have any info.

Thanks again for the info guys. I'm thinking I'll most likely go with the Lemans as I really am fairly partial to that sport classic look. If my car were only red w/ a black interior... this would be a no-brainer Although, I've now thrown a third contender in, haha. The Forgestar F14's in gunmetal look pretty freaking cool on a black box and they're quite a bit lighter. But, it looks as though they may have load-bearing issues. But, that is certainly a topic for a different thread!
