  • Dumb question on new wheels

    Well I've been saving my money through the winter for some new wheels. Looking on getting 17x9.5 Z06 wheels with 275/17/40 off ebay by spring. I have done searching on questions I had, but still left with one kind of dumb question. Is it easy enough to just put on a new wheel like when you rotate your tires or is there something different you have to do? (The wheels and tires would already be balanced) Just want to make sure before I buy some and put them on wrong and break something. Also is AFS wheels on ebay reliable?

          Suggestion: get your alignment checked, don't want to wear out your new tires right after you put them on: but yes, as was said if they are mounted and balanced you can put them on in your driveway.
