Oh, believe me, I know he's gonna bend it up eventually. My first car was a 67 RS/SS 396 & I wadded it up several times.

I take it you mean REAR tire wear ?

Dude if you like the car buy it!... Some of these guys are just really cautious about buying stuff. I bought my car from a dealership in Florida with only seeing one crappy picture. Turned out to be MINT Condition! You know that its a SS. LS1's last forever, and you already have the hood and spoiler. That's a good deal for that car and if you want SS wheels their not hard to find. Hell I just sold some Clean stock SS wheels for 300! Go for it man

Now that I'm older, and have about 7 years under my belt, i'm more responsible, but at that age... haha glad i had a v6 back then
Hey!! I got my ls1 at 17 lol. But maybe the driving experience with the 66 in sig helped me b a little more careful.

Buy the car. If your on the forums here chances are within a 2 year period less than 25% of that car will remain considering you will be upgrading the HELL out of it v6 .. v8 .. Z28 .. or SS, it will become nothing of what you bought it as.
