I'll be going to the one in Huntington Beach. I'm surprised it's going there. It's usually a bunch of old dudes with their old skool rides.

Both of you get your heads out of your asses and

They did build you "Pontiac people" a RWD car that is respectable, it's called the 2009 Camaro

The fact is you Pontiac people didn't buy enough cars and bigger rims are kind of what everyone else in the car world is doing (even aftermarket designers)...

People went through a lot to make this car happen and I'm tired of hearing people bitch and moan about stupid $hit instead of being gratefull...

They're giving us a great looking 400hp car... What the hell more do you want?!?!

Hell we could be back in the early 80's performance wise but THANKFULLY were not... So to the naysayers

the 21/22 wheels IS a bad idea.. i dont wanna pay 300+$ for a freakin tire if is blows.. try finding race rubber in 20+ sizes.. riiiiiiiight.. and dont say just put on smaller wheels... it would look GAY with these big *** fender wells and have 17's in there... would look like a tahoe..

but then again its GM.. and no one can be better than the Z06.. so i think we will see a 17/18 combo.. or the 18/19 combo... i would love to have 18's on all corners... i could live with that..

and im not the kind of person who bitches about a product and doesnt buy it.. I will own one.. and I am waiting for the day my local dealership calls me back to come down and pay my deposit...

Actually, it would look like ours stock on 16s.

I remember when I first bought mine that was the first thing I noticed.

That's what people said about 16" rims, then about 17"s and more recently about 18"s... When a cars go into PRODUCTION with that size rim PRICES DROP because more manufacturers make them...

I remeber before the SS's came out with 17"s trying to get a 275/40 ZR17 just about required a credit check
