well, ill say this, IMO i really think 5 spokes are the ****, looks the cleanest, esp on an american car.

those...not so much, hate 3 spokes,

even 6 spoke rims i dont like tht much (even tho i used to have some crazy flashy bling bling 6 spokes)

get flat black 5 spokes, those would look great on ur car.

Because you would need to swap axles, steering knuckles, hubs, calipers, rotors, pads, and let's not forget that the SS/SC and the base models have different axles so you would need custom axles made. Also depends on whether the axels would even fit given the different transmissions, so there may be more fab work right there. Oh wait. And you're going from drum to disk in the rear and that creates an entirely new set of issues.

It's not simple. It's not cheap. Period.
