SSR Integrals on a SS? Also new to the board

Hi guys,
I'm relatively new to this board, so hello!

I'm in the market for some new wheels for my 35th LE, and am considering the 18" SSR Integral that I found on www.tirerack.com.

Anyone have these, or pics of these on a SS?

Hey Jon.. there was a guy over at LS1.com in the Western section named Geoffrey... I believe he had these on his car.. I will page him for you and get you a picture (assuming he has a digital one).. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: SSR Integrals on a SS? Also new to the board

I think I saw that. He went with the SSR GT3's or something like that in 19's i think?
Those look great, but I they're like $550 a wheel! Ouch! Have you seen the SSR Integrals?
Check them out at www.tirerack.com and let me know what you think. Think I'm doing those in 18X9's. I was contemplating the same Z06 combo you have, but I think on a Red SS with Silver Stripes down the middle, I already draw enough attention to me... especially from black and whites <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Yea, but he HAD the SSR Integrals on it before (in 18") <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

He is supposed to be digging up a picture.. they looked good on his car when he had them.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> I would still be partial to shiny wheels on your car.. chromed or since you dont drive it much polished billet wheels.. they are actually very reasonably priced <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: SSR Integrals on a SS? Also new to the board

Thanks Steve!
I'm still 50/50 between the SSR's and chrome Z06's. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />
The chrome would match my hood scoop insert, but may be a bit too much shine. The silver/grey of the SSR's will match my stripes, and tone down the car a bit. And the SSR's are racer looking, which I like. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

I want to go with an aluminum motif for my interior/ opposed to the carbon fiber look you have going. That way I can match my shift ****, pedals, heater controls, air vents, door sill plates, etc etc. www.mbaproducts.com here I come!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Thanks again for the pics Steve. I think i'm more leaning towards the SSR's for sure.

Re: SSR Integrals on a SS? Also new to the board

I like the SSR's besides Red needs the chrome wheels less than Pewter does.. Also the Z06 rims would be more common than the SSR's... Oh, and lets not forget easier to clean <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Red - black & Silver (accents) would be perfect for your car.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Now paint them calipers red and toss on a set of the brushed silver Camaro letters <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Re: SSR Integrals on a SS? Also new to the board

Welcome to the board. Im just up the way from ya (100 miles or so north).

Id prolly go with the zo6 rims if you can, or maybe some y2k vette rims, those look great imo.

Re: SSR Integrals on a SS? Also new to the board

I like the ssr gt3 but when I spoke to Tirerack they told me they wouldn't fit. Please email me with what size and offset you bought. My email address is yamaracing@aol.com. Also did you have to modify anything to make them fit.

The numbers are off by a few millimeters (2mm I think) but they WILL FIT.
No modifications were necessary and the rims fit fine on the 02 SS. I'll tell my boyfriend to email you the info you requested.

Whitney<hr /></blockquote>Tirerack gave me the same answer about the SSR GT3. Could you have your boyfriend send me info on how to order them from tirerack.

Does your boyfreind have a blue 02 SS that goes by screen name Shaitiger on LS1.com???

Re: SSR Integrals on a SS? Also new to the board

Sorry guys, i've been busy with work, and haven't posted much lately....

I've decided to go with the SSR Integrals for sure. 18's all around. Wish I could afford the GT3's, but maybe when I'm making the big bucks, I'll upgrade <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
