I have an LS and was going to move up to 20's and then I saw how much it would cost me to replace the tires and I decided to get some aftermarket 18's. Early next month I'm going to drop it an inch and call it a day.

Here is what an 18" looks like. Went from 20" to 18" for performance reasons.

Sorry, I'm still new here.

Is there a governor or something that limits you to 118 MPH with 18" stock wheels?

I think a great style 22" ^^^ wheel is fine.

Just NOT ghetto CHROME 22-26" wheels-IMO.

The OEM polished 20" wheels look GREAT for people that CAN'T afford

aftermarket wheels, IMO.
