how about painting your stock steelies, adding trim rings & Chrome lug nuts. Would save some $$$

I had someone tell me its 10&3/4" but if I were you, i'd measure again (measure twice, buy once )

i found these but they say they only have a 32mm offset everything else is right on but would the offset being this far destroy the wheel bearings or just make the wheels sit out a little

I'm having this same issue. I'm completely clueless as to what is right for my 2007 LT2.

I do know I have 17 x 7 rims. I need to replace 2 due to stupid road conditions so I figure, eh WTH I will just get 4 new ones! However, Ive been told my backspacing can be anywhere from +35 to a +45. No idea on offset, was told there isn't one. I called the dealer...yea..worthless. I know my bolt pattern is 5/110. If anyone knows the correct offset and backspacing...I would so appreciate it. You would be my hero!

I remember seeing someplace that the polished 17"s were 6.5' and the painted 17"s were 7" wide. True or not, no clue. But I remember seeing that someplace.
