question about police impala wheels on an SS so im thinking of purchasing a set of black police steel wheels from gmpartsdirect and just wanted some feedback as to what everyone thinks.
I don't think there should be any issues with getting the police wheels to fit. they are 16" rims with P225/60R16 tires while the SS is 18" rims with P235/50R18. I probably will have more room to spare.
Im just concerned if the brakes and/or anything else will fit. Since the wheels are smaller will the brakes have ample clearance?
Anyone think otherwise or should i be expecting any fitting problems??

You should be fine as long as your running factory calipers and rotors on the front. I think my vette calipers would even clear 16 inch wheels. I think you'll be all good.
