They are the polished Solstice wheels. i'm running 225/40/18s on them..

I went with a H&R 5mm spacer in the 5x110 bolt pattern...they fit perfectly and one cannot even see them after install...

I love your SS trim..keeping my eyes open for SS parts myself..cannot afford to buy them all from GM parts direct at the moment..but i will pick what I can off ebay and elsewhere...

Only the fronts need a spacer, but I put spacers on all four just to be symmetrical.

Didn't really need them, but since I had ordered a set of 4 I might as well use them.

You said you picked up a set of wheels or spacers? I personally like the shine of the Chrome better.

How good is the finish of the polished and how are they to keep clean?
