I like the RS-style 20's the best. I think the 18's are kind of dull and 22's are just too big.

HOZAY · 05-14-2010, 04:07 PM

Max of 20". Don't do 22s! Or 24s, like that other guy with ridiculous looking 24s!

Get 20s. Definitely.

RedJewelSS · 05-14-2010, 04:19 PM

i actually like the old school 18s. id get 16s if they offered them on the ss

chuckstacamaro · 05-14-2010, 04:21 PM

The 20's are cool besides the car will have a higher top end speed with higher rated tires, but you will have to have the dealer retune for the larger tires. Top speed with the 18" tires is 118MPH with the 20's its 155MPH.

seddon · 05-14-2010, 04:23 PM

Put some 22's on.

2010 SSRS · 05-14-2010, 04:24 PM

Chrome 22's

Polished aluminum stock 20's look best in my opinion. The 18's just don't do it for me. Also, I've only ever seen 3 members here who've posted pictures of them non-stock wheels that I really liked, but none of them are better than the stock 20's or stock chrome 21's as far as I'm concerned.

TaylorRyanSS · 05-14-2010, 05:12 PM

black 22s

Berean · 05-14-2010, 06:31 PM

20's max.

BackinBlackSS/RS · 05-14-2010, 06:41 PM

If you plan on doing any racing, I would keep the 18's.

MinnesotaDream · 05-14-2010, 06:59 PM

I think bigger would look too ricer....hey...thanks for your service!!

IGOTGAME816 · 05-15-2010, 07:47 PM

22's

jmitt85 · 05-16-2010, 12:59 AM

I also have a LS and I put on some midnight silver 20's. Looks good but it seems to sit higher. I got the set for $1000
