What size rims does the basic new SS come with

I have a V6 but when my credit is restored I plan on getting an SS. I want to get rims for my 6 that I can transfer to the SS when I buy it

Does anyone have a preference on what are some solid made rims. I'm new to the whole rim purchasing thing.

Try the Wheel/Tire and the Vendor Sections. Vendors have links to their websites and you can get a good idea from these sections of what you want.

Looks and performance. They will eventually be going on an SS

For rims?? Plenty of vendors here who offer a lot more options than they do. They have good service and most tires are decent pricing but, they wouldn't be my choice for rims unless I was a teenage boy with a Honda looking for some cheap tuners.

I had a good experience with BestWheelDeals, http://bestwheeldeals.com/, they're a vendor on here.

But you need to first decide what your price range and tastes are. If you give them a call they can help you out with that.

I suggest lighter weight rims, probably 20 inchers. TSWs are what I have.

You might want to try looking around in the "Wheels and Tires Talk.." sub-forum found here: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=28
