    Nothing too crazy. 

    These for the front with a 10/15mm spacer running 245s

    http://www.nlmotoring.com/XXR-531-Wheels-17x9-Platinum-p/53179080.htm

    For the rear running 265s

    http://www.nlmotoring.com/XXR-531-Wheels-17x10-Hyper-Silver-p/53170083.htm

    I'm debating on the platinum (link for the front) or the hyper silver (link for the rears).  What do you guys think?

          They don't sell a gold rim in those sizes.  Kinda mad but I can always paint them.

          I just ordered the platinum becasue there was a sale on them and the hyper silver 17X9 was sold out.  Here goes nothing!

          Also got CAtuned 15mm spacers for the front, hub centric rings and I am about to order some g-Force Rival's.  245 and 255 both 40/17

              You're going to love the Rivals. I couldn't believe the difference they made on Brad's truck, night and day over the Nitto NT01's. Hook much better in a straight line too.

                Great to hear!! 

                Now I hope I'm okay with the platinum look for a while...

                  So, when are you snapping halfshafts? :)
                  Did you end up getting the CAtuned ones?

                    Not yet but I will in the future. I'm not looking to beat the crap outta this. Controlled fun. If that's possible

                      With 500+ Ft-Lbs and 265 rivals your halfshafts will not last long 
                      In for placing a bet on how long ;)
                      It's actually pretty cool to see twisted splines on a halfshaft.

                          Something has to give...just hope it's the tires and nothing in the driveline!

                            As long as you are not consistently launching, I wouldn't be 1 bit worried. Looks like you are more into roll racing anyways.

                              That's what I like to hear! I know how flimsy that rear end is so I don't want to push it with burnouts and banging gears.

                                If you want to do burnouts, buy a Camaro!
