This is on a NBS Sportside. It currently has a 4.3 but will have a LS1, LQ4 or LQ9 by January...

I'm looking for options on a awsome appearance and performance aspect...

4/6 with 18's. You'll look good and be able to find some grippy tires!

I'm thinking 2/4 w/ 18's, but I'm not sure...my tastes are changing. I've always liked a little rubber in the wheelwells myself.

4/6 with 20's!! Looks cool and you'll be happy with the drop. Anything less than a 4/6 95% of the time you wish you went lower

Im going with a 4/6 but dont know about the wheel combo yet.

2/4 is what I have and the 18's are on the way. I had twenties and wasn't satisfied.

4/6 w/ 18s. I think 20s are more for bling than go.

My wheels will probably be aluminum no matter what... and I hear that 20" aluminum still weighs less than stock 16" wheels... so what do you think would be the best?
