I feel the same way, their just sitting there. Even more so if they were black, like that one person that posted how they did theirs some time ago.

Every time I see the factory wheels it makes me thanksful that I replaced them. I'm dreading putting them back on for winter.

I felt the same way... went on ebay and found a set of the chrome ones for under $400... I think there are still some cheap sets on there too.

It is invaluable not having to buy a new set of tires for your new set of rims.

Heck that's one of the reasons I like the factory wheels... to hide the tiny over-worked factory brakes.

I might be interested if you decide to sell your factory wheels. I am the second owner of my 06 SS and the person who bought the car new ordered it with a set of aftermarket wheels from GM. They are the same size, just don't like 'em.
