RZAwora said:Don't let me discourage you from aftermarket wheels, that wasn't my intention. There are some cheap aftermarkets, but there some aftermarkets are far superior to any factory/OEM wheel. It's just that wheels aren't a one-size fits all. There are technical factors involved, as I mentioned, that you must pay attention to when selecting after-markets. The SS wheels are simple because you know they are the right pattern, offset, size, etc, and that they will fit no problem. There are plenty of after-markets that will fit too, you just have to make sure you are getting the right ones, that's all. It's up to you bro...
RZAwora said:Sorry bro...don't know where the confusion came in. The SS wheels, whether OEM or factory reproductions are a direct fit WHEEL. There are various size TIRES you can put on that WHEEL. After-market WHEELs is where you need to worry about lug pattern and offset. On an after-market WHEEL there will also be various size TIRES that will fit each different WHEEL. A WHEEL doesn't call for a certain tire, the vehicle it's going on is what determines what size TIRE the WHEEL will require.
I know this is somewhat confusing if you're not grasping the concept, so hopefully you are getting it.
