Default 15" chrome wheels

My wife just picked up a 99 vert, I would like to get some used chrome wheels, but everthing is 16,17 or 18 inch wheels, any of you have 15 in chrome wheels and if so where did you get them, pics with them on your car would be great, Thanks Ozzie

Hey welcome to the forum. I personally havent seen anyone in this forum with 15" chrome rims, but if you go to the chop shop section, you can put the pix of your car and the rims you like and they can put it together to see how they look. Good luck

I got 16's on mine, you can take a look at the pics, and tell me what u think,....
pernosonaly i think 15's would be too small, but hey, its all about personal choice...
I dont know where to find them, but good luck.

You should have 16" but IMO 16" chromes will look like crap, and you don't have to spend $1000 for new rims, go check out the for sale forum they have like 6 sets of rims for sale for an excellent price.

theyll atleast look better than 15's

in MY opinion, if you want 16's try a set of stock 98 GT rims. they werent stock on new edges, but they look pretty good. but im not sure how they'll look on a new edge though.

16"s became standard in 01 when they did the +3hp/5ft/lbs and redesigned the interior slightly

like new tires heres what you do
put the car in one or first, place one foot on the break, and with your other foot push down on the gas, or rev the car, dump the clutch and put the break on, your tires will be gone in a matter of minutes

And if you feel bad doing it, have someone else do it for you that you don't like much. Video tape them, then sue them for ruining your tires. They can't prove you asked them to, and you'll get money to buy new rims and tires with.
