IOM owner here. Love chrome against the metallic of the paint. I went with the ZL1 replicas in Chrome.

Yes this is my DD. I drive this car year round except when it snows or ices over (which rarely happens if it all where I am).
How's the handling and feel compared of the higher profile tires compared to the lower profile tires? Do you feel more shoulder roll when making sharper turns because of the taller sidewall? That's the only reason why I like the shorter sidewall. Tighter handling but feel everything lol.

The ride is a lot smoother all around. The tires absorb bumps and such in the road better. I don't take turns as tight now since I am running a drag radial out back. So I cannot speak to that but I hear 19's corner better than 20's on the 5th gen from reliable people. So I'd imagine less shoulder roll.

I'm having a similar decision, but at least I narrowed down the wheel...

Black or gunmetal?

Man, I miss living in NH. I am going to road trip my car up there to see my family soon. If you see another IOM SS with Texas plates soon, that is your's truly.

As to the question at hand, I think the special edition rims from GM look the best. The Dusk edition and a couple of other editions had them. Trying to find a good deal on them. But being 21 inch rims, my understanding is that tires are hard to get and expensive.

Is this a squared setup? It looks like it. Want to be sure before I bite the bullet on these wheels. Looks sick!
