I like to keep my stock wheels for snow-tires and a set of 17x9" rims for the Sonoma.

Z06 (lightest 17x9 wheel)

ZR1

This is the other option, but is thinner at 17 x 8.5"

ZR1s. Thicker spoke wheels look better on trucks, imo.

The Z06 would work pretty well for a Sonoma.

at $500 shipped for all 4 - good price?

I think so. Factory wheels are usually pretty damn expensive.

Obviously the Z06 rims.

The Z06 wheels look the best IMO.

BTW, buy a better truck since you can afford it.

I like my truck.

For what I use it for I can't really justify buying a new truck.

It's reliable.

Besides, I've installed, active suspension, inertia valve shocks, polyureathane bushings thorughout, fr/rr sway bars, x-drilled/slotted rotors with SS braide lines, etc......

Well the offset on these wheels is very similar to/exact same as the WS6 Trans Am wheels. Those are 17 x 9's and they WILL NOT fit on that body S10/Sonoma. They require about a 1.5 - 2" spacer which will put the wheel looking funny as it hangs out about 1/8".

$500 for all 4 is a pretty darn good price, I'd get them if they'd fit on my car.

They are knockoffs for that price guaranteed. But there's no reason not to buy fakes for the amount of money you save and for what you're putting them on.


I have some real ones with nearly new eagle hp's if you're interested.

I was going to go with some z06 wheels for my blazer, but at 17" i feel theyre too small to look good.
