i currently have a set of the c5 wagon wheels on my 95' c4. In the front i am using 245/45/17 and on th rear i have 275/40/18. I personally like them a lot and think that they flow good with the body.

I inherited my C5 wheels over the weekend from my step father and got them detailed up. I am going to re-use my current 275/40 17 on the front and have ordered two 285/35 18 for the back. I hoping it will be bad ***. Think I am going to lower it slightly too. Will post pics when I get them installed. BTW these are 2000 model C5 wheels, not the wagon wheels.

i have seen a picture of a c4 that was lowered and i could only tell a difference in the rear not really that much of the front. Maybe it was just the place he bought the kit from, what kit were you planning on purchasing?

I will probably just buy the longer spring bolts for the rear suspension. My car sets a lot higher in the back than it does in the front and I think that will probably be amplified once I put the eighteens on the back. I purchased my tires tonight for the rear wheels. Boughttwo Pirelli P Zero Rosso 285/35 18s. I think it will have nice stance with the wider rear tires than the front. I am staying with the 275/40 17in the front for now. It should have the 245/45 17 in the front but found out that the 275/40 will fit the 17x8.5s. They may bulge a bit, but that will be ok. Will buy the right size once the back account recovers, lol.
