I like those too!

With all your power, you could probably go big pimpin' like Stazi and get 19s. Not like the weight will hurt you

You MUST get at least 18s though!

thinking heavy 18's will help with traction

if you don't mind spending a few bucks check out 6061 Forged 19's @ 18.5lbs....custom machined with the bolt pattern & hub bore.


I'm looking into getting a set of 19's from them this spring. That is unless some other expence comes up.

Nice find Dave!

These mesh style 19's are only 16.5 lbs! I can even order them with my beloved gunmetal w/ polished lip look

18's or 19's seem like a must now when the time comes. I'm likely going to just get a good set of all-seasons on my E0's for now until I upgrade my suspension and brakes. I'd like to HAVE to jump up in wheel size because of brakes

Todd @ TCE has a 14+" front brake kit for our cars, but IIRC only 19-20's will clear them

just make sure you get some sticky tires. Toyo TR1's are what I'm looking at.

I like #3 and #4 from the original line up. I also like Taylor's recommendation and Dave's 5 spokers...

Since I plan on keeping this car, I'm going to hold out and get some nice light weight 19's this summer. Until then, I'm just going to get some good struts so I can install my H&R springs and upgrade the brakes.... and install my other goodies that I already have waiting.

I'm leasing a decent sized shop specificly to go all out on my Impala's restoration, and other projects for myself and for profit

Third and last ones. Maj and Radius.....if they don't come in your bolt pattern no worries they can be machined to work if you like the wheels enough.

These on my son's SVTC didn't come in the right pattern, but he made them work through the local machine shop.....:-)
