Default rim deciding time mmmmmmm...............

don't know what to go with....20s or 22s, chrome or alloy. My focus is the look of the SS right now, just purchased a MPD hood, so i guess i might go with the 20s drop springs and present a sporty look, 22s im quite sure cant be lowerd. either way the rims will be powderd coated with the stripe color scheme i will be putting on my SS, i will be also using custom emblems with only the stock SS emblem on grill, i got plans....but the rims got me on a hold...


oh yeah my car is a laser blue 06 SS.

thanks in advanced for all comments....

Please not 22's. 20s are the biggest you wanna go, so you still can lower.

i like 22's. i may be biased cause the rims i want dont come any smaller.

20's look nice, 22's look gaudy. your only going to have them on there for a few months anyways so get whatever you want.

post some pics to the kinds your looking at, then we could help.

Do a 20" then slam it. Looks a lot more full when the car isn't lifted over stock ride height.
