Default 16 inch chromes or 17 inch polished
Can anyone post pics of 16" chrome wheels on a firebird and 17 inch polished in a firebird?


The chromes are cheaper, and same size as current wheels so i can switch tires (my tread is still good) but 16" look so small on my car, which is why i kinda want the 17"..

Here is my car when it was still on polished 17's.



But the 18's sure look better IMO. (car is also lowered 1.5" here)

don't get 16's

it'll look like your car is lifted. 17's or up.
