SS TC/ Impala LTZ- Ten Spoke Rims
Well, useful information, and i need a hand. I was checking at the dealer for the new SS TC 10 spoke rims, and they came out to about $620 a piece.
$620 x 4 = $2480, before tires, balancing, etc.
Dealer = rape, i know. It was an option...
So, on my way out, i noticed a new 08 Impala LTZ wearing the same 10 spoke rims the SS TC has been wearing. So upon a return trip to parts, the Impala wheels came out to $420 each.
$420 x 4 = $1680, an $800 savings right?
Wrong. The Impala uses a nice 5 x 115mm bolt pattern compared to our 5 x 110mm.
Damnit, screwed again...
So, i guess now i just have to wait for some youngin' to wrap his new SS TC around a tree, and then i can get cheap wheels! Or ebay, but wheels & ebay... shipping = rape.
So... does anyone know where else to get cheaper than GM Parts, parts? (yea, i got ebay, i'll be watching) Thanks!

Hey! Now there's an idea! Thanks Reign!
I knew you didn't get to be an administrator on your looks alone!
My quest for wheels has hit the jackpot! I just found these now, DJ_Buca has them on his car, in a smaller size and different colour than i want, but these are comparable.
Anybody else think these rims are close?
MKW M72

Maybe MKW made the wheels for the SS TC? Now i have to find out if our centre caps fit into the MKW wheels...
