Id like to get some wider wheels for the rears. Where do I look?
You need to contact an auto repair shop to get a great choice of wheels. Some of them may look too wide for your car or they’ll stick out about an inch or even more. I would suggest that you look at the excellent options on the m2motorsportinc website perhaps IROC wheels?
You may want to get wider wheels if you plan to run 275mm width tires or larger on the rears. These are really too big for the stock wheels, according to most manufacturers.

As a basis of comparison, your local Chevy dealer will sell Impala rims for $330.30 each, including centercaps. The aftermarket wheels will fit perfectly as far as bolt pattern and backspacing.
