  • Rim sizes 20" 19" 18"??????

    I am wondering if 20" rims fit w.o alot of issues on the firebirds ('96). To me 18" seem small but I might run 19" if the 20"s don't fit. I have searched a but and not found anything but a picture a while back of one with 20"s but didn't say if he had to mod anything to get them on.

    i dont think they would, they would probably rub when u turn


    to my 18 is borderline and 19+ just looks stupid IMO

          I've got 17's and I think the additional mass is way too much for my car already. I think 16's were perfect for daily driving and what not.

          I can't begin to imagine how bad a drag 18's and bigger rims feel.

                          Screw all that. 20's can look good on a camaro if done right. If anyone disagrees about this car than you're nuts.

                            Here is my v6 camaro. I'd never put 20's on my ss, but here I think they look fine. Not 'donked' out.



                            And this is just a picture of one I think is on 20's but I am not 100%

                              I don't like them at all too much rim , just like the new Camaros don't like them either. If I had my way I would do 15's with some meat on them , instead of a strip of rubber around the rim. The ride on those 20's would be so harsh I couldn't imagine.
