I run 15x3.5" fronts with 165's and 15x8" rear with 28x10.50's. I care more about being light and going fast in a straight line than looking "badass" though.

Car: too many ...
I always prefer the 3inch harness because the 2 inch harness can cause you to break your colar bone if you crash (so I've heard). But I guess it depends on how often you drive and race the car.

I'm glad there are other people out there who aren't all into the low profile big' ole wheels. Don't get me wrong, I think they look good, but so do a lot of other combinations. I think 15's and 16's look MUCH meaner than 17's or 18's. Just the same way a Chevelle SS looks meaner than a Lambo Diablo. Doesn't mean one is faster than the other, but sleak supercar, and mean musclecar are two totally different looks.
...I think Irocs with 16's and stock ride height have the BEST stance for a thirdgen with a "mean" look. Ideally I'd love to have 2. One stock, and one in the weeds with big ole rims. (not TOO big). They each have there place.
