I wish I had that many miles, yesterday I turned 66k .

As for the guy that started this topic, theres no doubt about it thats a nice car. I like your stock wheels. If you do get different wheels I would get bigger rims.

You can get the ss style hood for $799 through www.ftforce.com. My cousin liked my ss and got his there for his z28. he was jealous.

If they fit, I agree the Tork Thruster II's is the way to go. A month or so ago there was a 4th gen in GMHP mag and that is what he had. I wish I could remember the size. I've been thinking about doing the same thing but will wait til I need new tires since I am gonna go larger than stock. I called a tire shop last week cause I was curious about price on these and that guy told me they would not fit, they were negative offset and I needed positive or something like that. I think he was wrong, did anybody else see that magazine?
