yeah could...but it fits an ss body. nothing has been done( that has been said at least) to show that these wil not fit. and they already said everything on the car will be able to be bought through gmpp months after sema. they wouldnt make a wheel that wont fit the carthat they are producing. not from gm accessories.

Apez, does the coil overs have the ability to change the ride height and the shock rebound only. If I lowered my SS 1 1/2 inches I would be having trouble driving on the streets of my home town.

The SSX doesn't look like it is more than 1 inch lower eyeballing the picture.

It say's wheel size 20 x 10 and 20 x 11 via Z/28 blanks...check what's written under suspension in the video.
Zoom in at 2:03 of the video below:

UPDATED 11-11-2010: Tire size up front is 285/30 R20 and rears are 295/35 R20

Ahh that model is so sick!

I def think the SSX wheels kind of look like a better version of the 4th gen Camaro SS 10 spokes?

Who said I was after the performance?

Fat meats really make the rear-view of the car exceptionally muscular.

The Pfadt coil overs have fully adjustable ride height and damping. I don't know how GM set the ride height but you could set it however you like. You are probably pretty close on your 1 inch estimate, here is how it looks if you take it all the way down to 2.5 inch.
