I just got a beautiful 1SS in arctic blue metallic with the 20" 5 split spoke low gloss black rims. Don't get me wrong they are beautiful rims but I'd rather have 18's because I like having some sidewall to work with and I'm looking for a cleaner more traditional look. In advance, I know a lot of people like these rims and think 20" rims look good on Camaros, if that is the case more power to you I have nothing against them, I just would rather get the traditional look of more sidewall, as well as the lower chance of scraping rims on curbs.

I've never exchanged rims/tires on a vehicle before. Could someone point me in the right direction of how I might figure out which wheels and tires to get? I'm really starting from scratch here. From my preliminary research, 18" is about the smallest I can go before having to worry about hitting the brake piston, so 18 inches is what I settled on.

Thanks for the help!
