I don't know how to make a poll after the thread has started, but I'm pretty sure it can be done. I always see "poll added' in others...

I'm going to hijack this thread a bit for an opinion on the wheels I'm looking at. I'll be getting a black SS soon and love carbon fiber. Wheels are 18x8 40mm offset so they should work with stock tires. If anybody knows of any wheels like these without the rivets around the outside, let me know.

I don't really think any of them are a big enough change from the unknowns to warrant the expense. They are all very similar so the overall look will stay the same and you know as soon as you get them the 09 stuff will come out and you will see something you like better. Also wondering if GM ever fixed your paint under the doors?
