Hi,

Anybody located good looking chrome wheels for the V? I have the black one. Chrome would look good on it.

I havent done much research on this yet because the stockers look pretty good in my opinion. However, I wouldnt mind going wider in the rear... something at least in a 9.5" and ideally a 10" or 11" wide would be even better :)

I havent looked at the car yet to see how much room there is to squeeze more meat in, and I'm about to lower the car with Eibach springs anyway which would cut the space even tighter.

Like a Corvette, GTO, or V eries, there isn't enough wheel well to support a wheel very much wider then stock. Your GONNA HAVE TO put a mini tub kit in. It sounds crazy but, my cousin did it to his MTI Z07, and you cannot even tell. Really, it looks stock. That way, you can go with a wheel around 11" , and i'm sure a little larger. I belive Mallet is the only company that I have seen advertise this kit for the V. Maybe soon BMR. Maybe even Katech. I'd highly recommend the mini tub kit for ultimate handling/traction/ and look.
