    Absolutely, though it could limit your style choices, depending on what you had in mind.

      So is it possible to get 17 inch rims that are, I dunno.. maybe 8 in. wide?
      I dont think you would like how that would look though... Someone I know has 17x8 wheels on there camaro and it looks funny from the back.

      Looks great from the sides but its flat out ugly from the back, IMO.

        Your right, I imagine it would look ghetto. Well.. I guess my best bet is to stick with what I have. I originally wanted a set of steel rims to powdercoat black. Maybe even a set of 16 in 5 stars. I'm not a big fan of the snowflakes...

          Check craigs list, I see these wheels cheap all the time. Usaully around 200$ or less for a set. Heck I got my chrome wheels for 200$.
