Will a 17 inch rim fit a 08/09 SS ?
As far as tires they MIGHT include a "road hazard" clause. Then if you pick up a nail or something you're OK, but they won't cover a blowout or anything like that they could possibly blame on improper maintenance. They also won't cover premature replacement because they usually deem that as "abuse".
My best friend used to sell "tire and rim" warranties to unknowing schmucks all the time, so I'm pretty familiar with all their ins and outs.
Anything wrong = manuafacturer's defect. Which are few and far between. You curb a rim and they'll laugh.

When I hear "tire and rim warranty" I just assume it falls into that 95%.
It all depends on the wording of the agreement. 95% of the wheel and tire warranties a) cover what's already covered in the bumper to bumper warranty and b) won't cover "damages". The other 5%, which it sounds like you're talking about, are called warranties but are more like a consumer protection/insurance plan where it covers any damage done to the wheel or tire.

BTW my former employer was Belle Tire...
That is why I didn't bother with it.
If it is a defect, I have a good dealer, and they are going to cover it anyways...a road hazard plan...meh...IMO not where my money is going to go.

LOL you've also got the same issue I do. If people in PA/NJ offered true 100% "road hazard" coverage, they'd be out of business within 6 months.
If it's through the dealer or GM, they won't cover non-GM wheels. If it's from a wheel and tire shop, they'll generally cover anything you purchase from them.

"They fit.
5x110 and 40mm offset...pointless thread."
This is what you said about Cobalt SS/SC rims, that of COURSE they would fit a TC.... blah blah blah... And of course you then answer a non
hostile post with,"Probably because you are an idiot or made a stupid post...please point out where I called your post pointless please?"
Idiot? Stupid Post? Pointless? I asked a simple question to see if someone could try ss/sc rims on a ss/tc to see if they would fit....
Next time you should probably try and help instead of just having a snide remark...
Good job...........
