Default SS rims?

do yall think the silverado SS rims would look good on the '99-'02 chevy trucks? could i put them on if i have a 2/4 drop, would there be any rubbing? i don't have the rims or anything, i'm just trying to see what yall everyone thinks.

I don't think you'll have a prob with rubbing. I believe the SS setup is 20" X 8.5"? with a 285/55 tire. I have a 2/4 drop with 20" X 8.5" with 275/45.....yes Goodyear Eagle GTII. There's no rubbing issues with this combo. It wouldn't give me any reason to say the SS's wouldn't work.

You won't have any rubbing problems with those rims and a 2/4 drop (if you have the right size tires). I have some 20x9 rims with 275/45/20 Goodyear GTII tires and have had absolutely no rubbing problems. I also have a DJM drop which is lower than the Hotchkis 2/4 kit. So I'd say if you can find a good deal on some SS rims go for it!!

well do yall think it would look good? i'm not a big fan of 20's, though some do look good. i'm not out for the bling bling look either. though i would kinda think the 20's would look and not draw too much attention, not like chrome 20's would.

stock SS wheels are 20x8.5"

and the stock tire size is 275/55

i would like to drop my SS like 3" and put some 255s and i think it would look really good, so i dont see why it would look good on your truck. If you can find some at a decent price, go for it <img border="0" alt="[driving]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_driving3.gif" />
