I know, it's expensive, but when you look at any of the high-end rim manufacturers the cost is at least $1,000 per rim. Sure you can get a set of cheaper rims for around $2,000.00 but to me the...

So far I'm digging it but to be honest I haven't really put the power down hard or hit any fast corners yet. I do plan on supercharging later so this setup also gives me a little more tire patch...

For me, these wheels were the best looking I could find and while a little pricey, you're paying for OEM and testing on ZL1/1LE wheels. If you've got an older SS and didn't have the 1LE option at...

Looks almost identical to what I did to one of my rims. Try this if you don't want to pay someone or are worried about them getting too aggressive with the repair.

Buy some 2000 grit sandpaper,...

I have an '11 and have not upgraded my suspension. I know the aftermarket stuff is typically of better quality than stock and I would likely go that route.

Pardon me if I'm being a little slow, but are you saying that the new rear sway bar won't mount to our subframe because of new 10mm bolts? Or are these larger bolts just for the ZL1?
