hi, I just bought a new ls model and im trying upgrade its look some. does anyone know if deep dish 20' rims fit on it? also, id like to add a dual exhaust. does someone know what the cost of something like that is and also if rear bumpers from the ltz can replace ls bumpers to accommodate the dual exhaust?

the ltz lower bumper trim is all you need, it replaced the old one, has two ports and is about $60.

no as far as going with dual exhaust, you can go aftermarket or you can buy the ltz exhaust which would have to be cut and welded on to the old ls pipe.

the rims, it all depends on backspacing.

Try a site like Discount Tire or Tire Rack . The Discount Tire site has a set up on their web site that will put the wheels you want to try on your car so you can see what they look like. You can even pick the color of the car....not exactly a match but close.

You can put in what car you drive and the site will pick out the wheels that fit and that they sell. I do know the bolt pattern is 5x110 with an offset of 40 mm.

I have my wheels out in the garage waiting for my 09 to get here. I have the ones in my Avatar except I got the chrome spokes. With the Konig Hot Swaps you can pick either Black rims or Chrome/brushed rims with different color spokes available. And you can CHANGE the spokes later to a different color if you want to change the look of your machine. Just bolt on new spokes. They come in Chrome, Red, Carbon Fiber.

Hopefully no cutting involved, should have them installed by next weekend if it looks like take off, put on type install. Hope this helps.
