Opinion on 03-05 rims?
Wednesday, December 01, 2010 9:06 AM
Hi,

I want to upgrade to rims eventually...what is your opinion on the premium rims that come with the LS?

You know, these.



I noticed not a lot of people have these...is it because you want to have a more unique look? I like these, but I imagine they're kind of expensive.

They look really good, I do not think a lot of people here dislike them. I just think most people like to have aftermarket rims. All of the Z and LSsport rims look great when on lowered J's. Id say go for em if you really want to.

yeah. I personally like the ls rims. Go get a set. You seem to like a clean looking car, and those rims are clean on any j-body.

There are two styles of those-- one style is what you have posted above, the chrome. And then there is the machined style. Which I personally think look MUCH better. Then again, I'm a sucker for a machined wheel...

Yeah, this.

Alot of people just prefer wheels that are a wee bit bigger. Like the 17-19" range.
Trust me, if the stock wheels came in 17s or 18s, I'd rock em. Hard.

As far as I know, those Z24 rims are the same style as the hubcaps that came with my car...in which case I don't think they're that great.

I've seen these on a 05 before...



I kind of like them too.

I liked mine. Put some nice tires on them and they were solid factory wheels.
