'/Help me choose some new rims for my Caprice/Impala"

[teedot231999 10+ year member]

I am thinking of putting some new rims on my caprice/impala. I would like some opinions on wich of these rims will look better on my car. I am also doing air ride suspention. I'm not sure If I should do 22's or 24's. I've seen four caprices'impalas bagged on 24's. All of those cars were very very very nice. I needyour help me to narrow the choice down to 3 then I will do a poll on the five finalist and also I would like you all to help me decide if I should put 20's 22's, 23's , 24's or 26's on my car?[/b]. I probably won't do bigger than 24's even though a sales rep told me I can bag a caprice/impala on 26's I have to see that to believe it. What do you all think about 26's on these types of cars?I, I really dislike those cars with 40" lifts:I've seen some of the mid 90's caprices/impalas on rims 26's and some of them look ok but most of them just look plain retarded with the car jacked up like 4x4 trucks Why so big? That's not the look I'm aiming for. .So take a look at these rims and give me a numberof the rimm you think will look best on my 94 caprice/impala. Please vote for the rim size in the poll. I appreciate all the help you guys "Thanks".

Get rid of 5, 9, and 10

and if you can without it looking retarded or lifting it, go with the 26's

otherwise 24's

#8 and don't go over 22's anything over you would have to lift it.

i had 24" and i didnt lift it

Then how much cutting did you have to do to fit them...?

 

[350zspl 10+ year member]

it is all in the offset

if you look very carefully at large wheels on 94-96 caprice and impalas

some have the front wheel wells removed and can only dry drive

some have the wheel well molding some have removed the modling , so remove one and leave the other

i would go to http://www.impalassforum.com and search there wheel and tire threads and post up over there

you have more clearance on the drivers side than the passenger meaning the distance from the sidewall to the inner fender lip differs

always more rubbiing and cut sidewalls on the passenger side

here is my impala

talk to sharpss on that forum he will advise you

I find it interesting that you'd have all of those thugged out choices, and then have some BAD wheels at the end...

Get some 20s. Mild drop. Save the rest of the money that you would have spent on 26's and make it get loud?

 

[99grandprixGT 5,000+ posts]

get # 4 in 20s and that would look sick.

 

[MikeyB 5,000+ posts]

20's and choice number 3.

But if I were you I would get a set of 18 or 20inch chrome irocs...like the impala posted up a few ^^^^

They can be had on ebay for the low
