I may take forever to make a decision, but when I finally do, I am pretty happy about it.

Looks great - what are the wheels / tires?

Thanks man! Was a little hesitant at first, but the more I look at them the more I like them. The material matches the chrome strip perfectly, just need to get my rubber bumper strips back on

255/50R17 Hankook ventus
with the drop they fit near perfect, the front end has settle a little more since this photo, they are snug with no rub, and they hook up real nice

Added Bonus, they are a pretty light weight for a 17". Noticeably lighter than the stock smaller buick wheel. They are designed for a pickup truck so I am guessing they can handle our weight class no problem. Rides like glass on the highway

It's got me thinking - my SS wheels need to be stripped and redone, and the rubber is old too. Choices choices.

Great looking wheels. Nice to know that they are light in weight.
