I think if you had some Baer brake rotors to show off they would be great but as is I dont care for them.....

The rims look good to me but if you dont like them you can always buy some originals. Most important thing is how do she run?

The 2 posts above me are spot on need bigger brake set up may improve look and wheels are one of cheapest things to change

The car comes with its original wheels and the car is mint its a florida car 60000 miles been repainted 1 time by the original dealer about 15 years ago the car has little bolt ons! And she runs great!

To my eye 17" wheels look about the best for an over-sized wheel in a factory G-body wheel opening. Twenty inch wheels are borderline donk looking.

Too big.

I personally hate the rubber band tire look.

Here's what 17" wheels look like with 2" drop spindles up front & 1" drop springs in the rear.

.

They will never hook up & launch like a 15" wheel & tire will.

I'm not a fan of the big wheels, but the car would look a lot better if it was lowered. The wheel style isn't bad, they're pretty cool.

I wouldn't put 20's on my TB but that's a personal preference thing. I happen to like the design of those wheels though. In the end, its your car. The only opinion that really matters is yours.

General rule of thumb : If you don't know if you like it....You don't like it.

If it were ugly you'd know you didn't like it. In this case it is not really ugly but it apparently isn't the look you are after.

I bought this GN somewhere around 2009-2010 and it had these big wheels on it. The seller said if I didn't want the wheels he'd take like 1k or so off the the price of the car. I took the price break, these looked terrible in my opinion. Yours look way better than these! If this one would have had the wheels you have I may have just kept them, lowered it and see how I felt about them. There was no hope for these IROC wheels!

Lower it. Drive it. Then sell them if you don't like it after that.

Not sure you can lower it without the tires rubbing the bottom side of the hood. hehe.

When seeing those wheels, Fido'sazz comes to mind...
As mentioned:
A. Buy it w/the stock wheels for less $. Let the seller go thru the aggravation of selling them.
B. Buy it, and you go thru the agg....
I chose "A". No fone calls asking a million ?'s. No dorks snooping around your place. No shipping hassles.
