    Wondering what wheel/tire combos people are running on the pro touring cars? What size? What offset? ect..
    Need some advice!
    Thanks!

    Not my Buick, but on my Camaro which is a mix of pro-tour and pro-street I'm running 17's. However 18's seems to be the go for most people.

    18s are a good looking size,..but 17s are the ticket for ride quality,..and tire and wheel options

    245/40/18 front 305/35/20 rear that are the ones I got from a member here. 18’s slid right in, the 20’s bolted on but will require some slight trimming so they won’t rub.

    18x9 with a 275/35/18 up front. No modifications to fit (had to remove top inner fender bolt)
    18x11 with a 315/35/18 in the rear. I had to trip the inner wheel lip and wheel well mounding, and bash in the inner wheel well to sit flush with the frame.

    Picked up some 18 inch wheels.

    Some 275 40 and 255 40 are on the way to replace the rubber bands
