Those rims look great! Making me second guess my "Heritage" steelies from the LS... I've got mine on but need to get the center caps and black hardware, they look ridiculous the way they are now!

YYZ - they look really good. Did you get TPMS installed from Tirerack as well?

Hey, I wrote in the other thread..but NO...I didn't order them...BUT I think Tirerack installed them. I changed the wheels..and the in DIC I told it to relearn the wheels and apparently it did. No warning lights, no messages, not anything. When I check the DIC, it gives me pressure readings...so maybe I lucked out?????

Nice

Hope I get some of that luck when I order.

I think I'm going to go with the 225/60/18 Firestone Winterforce as well with this 18" rim:

Grim, that's gonna look real sharp!!!

GrimKeeper · 11-23-2009, 04:17 PM

Thanks YYZ - gotta love Tirerack!

Until I got this car I never thought that I would care so much about what my winter rims look like. lol

I had those rims on my wish list too! Looks good on the Black Camaro! What size tires did you buy? I went with 225/60R18.

I went with the same size as well in the Firestones. Best bang for buck. IMO.

Good choice those rims look really good on your car!

trying to get some winter tires (in nova scotia) every chev dealership says I can't go with 18" tires and rims that I must go with 20"s I have a 2lt rs. front tires are different size than back. They also say I can't put same size winter tires all around they must be different in front and back. Any feedback??

Just had my 18" rims and tires from Tirerack.com installed on my 2LT RS this weekend at my dealership. Ordered the rims and tires on Tuesday morning, they arrived mounted and balanced on Thursday morning.

No problem using 18" on a 2LT RS.
