Anybody else like SMALLER wheels on their thirdgen?
 

It may just be me, but I think 15" diameter wheels seem to be the perfect size for thirdgens. The 7" wide wheels are too narrow, but I think a 15x9 would be a perfect match. I think I prefer a taller sidewall on the tire. Maybe I've watched NASCAR for too many years? :p

I currently have the stock 16" wheels on my '92, and have a set of 17" ZR1 wheels in my garage, but every time I see a set of 15x7s I think it looks damn good.

I like the 14 and 15 inch wheels on our cars. On my 83 Camaro I am running 14 inch all around. When I get some money am going to put 15x10 rally wheels in the back.

Yes, I agree the Camaro I just bought has 16" ones on now and I am going to go back down in size.

The stock 15s look good but I desided to go with something a little more old school
15X7, 235/60r15 fronts and 15x8, 255/60r15 rears.

Yes that is perfect. This is the way our cars are suppose to look.:chevy:

I like the lowered cars with 17in. and even the 18in. Corvette style wheels on them also.
I believe the car should fit/be an expression of the owner.
Im old school so my car reflects that. Its part of me.

Depends on whether the car has ground effects. I think 17" or 18" work best on gfx cars while 14"-16" work best on non gfx cars. Here is what I mean, 14" wheels just look tiny on a ground effect car
