Help deciding wheels
 

I need some help deciding what wheels I should get for my car. First I cant decide if I should go with 18's or 20's. And second I cant decide if I should go black with a chrome lip or just go all chrome.
What do you guys think?





Thanks
Steven

Well, it's your car but I know that I would prefer 18" as you will have a nicer ride than the 20" will give you. I personally like the black with chrome lip if the car is dark colored or has black accents. I hate seeing the ricers around town with there black with chrome lip wheels on an all yellow or green or any other annoyingly overbright color that has no black on it whatsoever.

The bigger the wheel, the worse the ride. My '01 SS LE had 16", and rode great on Michelin Energy tires. This Intimidator SS has 17" from the facory, and has Michelin Pilots. Almost as good a ride, but the Energy tires were a better tire. The 18" Eagles have the BFG's, and there is a NOTICEABLE difference in ride, plus I have problems with balance, more than with the 17". I'm thinking of going to 20's, but I drive 100+miles a day, and I don't know if they will withstand the driving without getting bent. And the price of tires!!!

i think 17" is the way to go myself. just my opinion

RE: Help deciding wheels
 

17's and drop it an inch.

RE: Help deciding wheels
 

In Georgia you can drop it an inch, no problem. But not in Michigan! Not and drive it in the winter. These things sit low enough as it is.

28" and a lift kit.... all the way. lol




Id never go bigger than 19". I know some people have a rubbing issue on the back with weight with 20's, so I figure 19"s are big enough.

RE: Help deciding wheels
 

now a lift kit and 28"s might work....

I replied to your post on the other post you made... stay 18's... 20 is too big if you plan in actually making your car fast like you were talking about in your turbo post..

Does anybody know where I can get the 06 SS wheels?

RE: Help deciding wheels
 

try that GM link that Space has been posting the past few days.

RE: Help deciding wheels
 

Or you can find a pretty good set at a god price on ebay right now. Also someone is selling some in our classified adds if i remember right

RE: Help deciding wheels
 

The other people you know should change where they get their tires & wheels at. I have never had a problem with 20's or 22's. If they are doing a static balance I could see it hitting if the weights are on the drop center but I don't think any one would do them like that, I hope not.

RE: Help deciding wheels
 

i got mine from wheelsnext.com wheel and tire pkg just at 1100 shipped and ready to be put on

He was talking about the weight of people or items in the backseat.
