i have a 2007 ss sc with the stock 18's.. i wanna get a set of 19' TSW chromes (http://www.bigwheels.net/index.php?l...bold_id=238677)
is there any specific specs i need to get .. says like 19x8 and 19x9.5 what do the second pair of numbers mean?

 

19" is the diamater and the 8" and 9.5" your reffering to (I think thats what your reffering to at least) is the width of the wheel.

I just ordered some custom drilled 19"x8.5" Axis Hiros for my 2.4SS. For the TSWs your talking about, i'd go with the 19"x8". I don't know about a 19"x9.5" wheel fitting w/o major rubbing issues. However, theres RemedyOne's setup..........which just blows my mind...

If you want someone to talk to about fitment as far as 19"s are concerned, i'd talk to RemedyOne. I believe he has 19"x8.5" front and 19"x10" rear........crazzzzzzzy big setup. However, his wheels, much like mine, are custom drilled, so we both went out on a limb by putting them on a 'balt.

Mine have yet to come, so im just keeping my fingers crossed and hoping everything turns out well.

19"s FTW!!!

 

Those are definitely nice rims. Good choice.

 

for bolt pattern and offset what should i be picking?

 

5x110 I believe.

 

so whats the stock width on the ss 17inches

 

I could be wrong but i want to say they are 17x7.

 

yeah, they are 17x7. My Enkei WDMs are 18x7.5, and my Axis Hiros are 19x8.5.

Just keeps getting bigger and wider. Hell, at this rate, a few years from now i'll have like 26x14, lol. (lets hope not).

 

What is the offset for this car?

 

the ss/sc is +38 to +42 (anything inside fits)

 

well, bad news for me. Turns out that custom drilling the Hiros came out pretty shitty. They said that b/c it wasn't a universal 5-lug pattern (10 holes), plus the fact that this particular wheel dosent have a centercap to cover the lugs, it just came out looking bad and they didnt wanna send me half ass wheels. So, the rep handling my ordeal tried to sell me instead...........ah, what would you know..........19x8 TSW Nogaros, lol. I believe i'd get them for the same price I was paying for the other wheels ($2,000 w/ tires, mounted, balanced, free shipping) which is a bangin deal for TSWs.....they are maaad expensive. However, the wheel design is nice.....but im not gonna spend $2,000 on plain colored wheels.......im just not feeling them. I much prefer a gunmetal or black face w/ a polished lip. So now im kinda on hold w/ 19"s again, which really sucks considering the $2,000 already cleared my account, my girlfriend already paid her money for the 18" Enkei's that my car is currently riding on, and I need the new wheels/tires before I go to Myrtle Beach on July 15th..............ooooh what an adventure this is turning out to be.......
