[Evil SS 2006]

I like my stock "dubs", everyone seems to think they look better than most aftermarket options...

I just wish we had a 20x9 OEM wheel!

What do you all think?

I just wanted to be the first EVER thread in this section!

I like the stock rims compared to much of what is out there available for our trucks. There just is not that big of a selection due to the retarded lug size that Chevy doomed us with. Why they did not us the 6x5.5" like on other Chevy trucks, I will never know?

I do however like these...

I put these wheels on my uncle's Denali in a 22" and love them...but no go on the TBSS lug pattern...damned 6x5...

 

[dallaSStx]

It is possible to widen the stock wheels... I think it's $125 per wheel... and width is added to the inside of the rim.

How much wider can a wheel go on the front, or rear, and clear the suspension??

I'm sure someone here knows... probably Norcal for sure.

Evil SS, I totally agree. I like my factory wheels as well. I wanted added tread on the ground plus the better performance. My car is not slammed but lowered 1 1/4 inch. I had 2 inches added to the rear wheels and am using Goodyear RS-A 295x40x20's in the rear. RS-A 245x45x20 in front to give matching tread and sidewall bulge and aspect ratio look. It takes a few small tweeks to gain added clearance on the inside where the wheel could rub but overall worth is.

 

[PEDRO]

^^^ how did all that work out?

 

[Sack Rat SS]

Hey Pedro, where have you been? Miss your posts. How about an update on your ride. The wheel/tire thing has worked out very well. Andy has the same setup on his TBSS as well. The 295's do a better job on launches. Lets hear from you.

 

[PEDRO]

i cant post over on tv.com,lol. Im under frijolero over there now though. No update on the truck, still running about it.

Wheels w/ a lip?!?!

Does anyone make a wheel that looks worth a shit? I don't want to go custom . I might be able to get a few strings pulled w/ a certain someone who had a handful of my coworkers on his TV show... But.. Ehh.. Damn our shitty bolt pattern

Agreed. I haven't really seen a single aftermarket wheel that looked decent to me yet.

naaa. I'm just saying the stockers look better :biggrin2:

 

[PEDRO]

sure........

 

[lt1z]

The only aftermarket wheels that I want cost too much. HRE will make you anything in any bolt pattern, but they are about $2000 per wheel for the ones I want.

I think I might do the black chrome coating on my stockers
