Ok, so I work at a Chevy dealership in the part department, and I've been looking for a new wheel to replace my stock 14" hubcaps. I can get cast aluminum wheels that are for cavaliers at a damn good price my cost. 15x6 are 75 a piece, and 16x7 are 90 a piece. Which one would you guys go for personally? I'm favoring the 16's but I'de like some others input.
16's look sweet, go for it
thats really really cheap get your hands on those 16's while you can i went to a few different dealerships with the same question and they wanted $500 a wheel needless to say i walked out without saying a word
Thats what I thought. The 15's are a glorified version of my hubcap and i wanted something different. The 16's arent the chrome 16's though, but Im not big into chrome, and the cast wont rust, and they look damn good, and its a good price....Tires are only 40 bucks a piece to for a BF Goodrich Radial T/A 205/60/r16, and that isnt a bad pricew for those either. Once I figure out how to post pics, and get the wheels in a few weeks, Ill post the before and afters

A M E N, BROTHER!!! For the longest time I was looking for 16" Beretta GTU wheels and onlone they were $320 each, the dealer wanted close to $500. THey're on crack to try and justify that price. Gram Lights and SSR Competitions are cheaper than that, and look better, too!
Not a bad deal but you could have a set of 17's or 18's for a little bit more, I'd go with a bigger wheel than stock if I was spending money on 4 new wheels......

Technically, he IS getting a bigger wheel. He did say he has 14" steelies, and 16" is bigger than 14".
yes, 2 inches of more wheel is actually quite a bit
i'd get the wheels for 90 bucks a piece and then sell em for like 110 a piece. then get a set of 17's.
GO PATS!!!
I dont want to deal with bigger breaks, and a small ass tires, especially since they will be one year round, and since im in illinois, winters get bad.
