Thanks man! They are 17' x 9.5' all around Morxchn C5 wheels that I got off of a store on Ebay. They had a polished lip, but I preferred the ALL black look. I sanded the clear coat and some of the aluminum surface on the polished lip, took some gloss black Duplicolor to the lip and let them bake under a hot lomp in my garage. I kind of wish I would have sprayed some clear coat on them too, but I love the results either way.

My plan is to widen the rears to 11'. I would have gotten the ZR1's but I liked the C5 wheels better.

I paid $499 for them. It could have been a bit less, but it's around there.

Indeed. I believe the seller was OE Wheels. They have boat loads of wheels. Although they had a couple of nicks here and there when I received them, it was nothing really noticeable.

yeah both those cars are bad ***! If i was you I think I'd just keep it stock. it flys as it is, but then again I was happy with the power my near stock 01 bird made, all it had was 3.73s, exhaust,and intake. I'm always changing my mind but as of now I think I'm just gonna build a bad *** 355 or 383 with a stealth ram and port and polish some vortech heads I have then do a big brake kit and some sub frame connectors, then just buy another 4th gen ls1 firebird and do full suspension and brakes to it.
