ws6 rims

[5_spd_pewter_v6]

i just bought some ws6 rims off of ebay. i could have sworn that some time in the past i read that we needed some jounce spacers if we put these rims on our cars. where can i get these? how much do they cost? and i assume that i need them all theway around, right?

You don't need them... I have been running WS6 wheels for 2 years now with no problems. Don't waste your money.

not needed, but gm adds them for a reason ;)

Theyre cheap.

I guess I'm the one exception outta here. After I installed my 275-40-17"s, my rear wheels would rub the wheelwells everytime I hit a dip or pothole in the street. I needed the spacers. Maybe its a sign that the rear springs may be gettin' old.

yeap ;) thats why GM installed them.

normal driving you are fine. I don't know if it would be a problem not to run them, but mine do show signs of contact, and they have been on the car for 5 years... ;)

i will probably get some eventually. i'm not going to put these rims on immediately, my current tires have about 60-70% tread left. i was planning a trip to Billy Graham's this summer any way. i will try to pick some up for cheap when i go there.
