Craigslist: 5x120 set of Hamman rep PG3 19 inch stagger bmw ///m3 - $1 http://atlanta.craigslist.org/nat/pts/3159253492.html
I know they are off a beemer but I think those would look damn good on a fbody

Those would look incredible I think. 19's on an F-Body for looks is about perfect IMO. 18's are a great compromise between looks/performance, and 17's are just the standard anymore. Just my $.02

That price is a great deal as well... but will 9" wide satisfy you?

I almost bought the same wheel before I found the deal I got on my Ruff Racing 278's. Kinda wish I woulda bought those because the 278's have a shitty chrome job.
Would look good but what is the offset?
I've seen a couple of F-Bodies with BMW wheels already and boy the look awesome. A friend of mine offered me his T/As wheels that came from a BMW X5, this is his car:

Thanks for the input guys. I've been looking around at wheels. I could be happy with 9 inch. They would be street wheels. I will have slicks and skinnies for fun times lol
Btw was looking apparently they aren't made anymore. And are uber expensive so I bet this set won't last long. Oh and chris I was looking your looked like the pg2 set?

pg2 ?

Hamman pg2 looks just like the wheels you had. I was trying to find info on the wheels and its pretty scarce except people wanting like $1900 for a set

would think 9" wheels would not be wide enough (for the rears at least).... Like in honestly From the side the BMW wheels Groh had looked great.. but, you can see they look like pizza cutters.
Im ready to bump up to bigger than my 315s and they would not be feasible on 9" wheels.

My rears are 9.5 wide and I run 295 bfg's, 285's look pretty wide on 19" rims. I've posted pics on here in the "ass shots" thread with 285 tires.

Yea I was planning on having them widened but I did gain some mpg from the 17x11's

Oh... ok, thats a respectable size... I take my comment back. I as afraid he would be looking at like 245s....

245s say what? That would be horrible. I would atleast want like a 275

well i thought the 16" wheels were 8-9" wide and they came with 245s.... so i made an assumption with the width bein similar

Gotcha. SS and ws6s came with 17x9s and had 275/40/17s stock.
The others were 16x8s and had either 245s or if it was a z rated car 255s

Heres some pics with 285's on my 19" RR278 wheels if you're looking for an idea of how wide of a tire you can g and how it looks.
couple recent pics from my phone

Yeah I'm actually hoping a set of chrome zr1s is still for sale in a couple weeks cause if so it will be riding those to the shootout. With new tires of course lol just gotta get these stupid bills paid
