no affense but they look like the old IROC 5 spoke wheels. and no dish... eh. I'd have to say go aftermarket
For OEM wheels and the tires that isn't bad. OEM in general are hella expensive for whatever reason. My wife had her new car for a week when a 8" peice of rebar went through the tire and shattered her rim. A single tire was $200 and the dealership wanted $1900 for one rim. I nearly had a brain hemorrage. Fortunately she sweet talked the dealership into somehow covering it under warranty. We had to buy the tire, but they gave us the rim for free.

Would swapping 22's for 17s affect your towing capabilities?

by the way polished aluminum wheels suck compared to chrome. I had polished billet specialties on my old chevy nova. they faded in no time and that was with weekly polishing. chrome you can go a month without washing and one wash they are new again. I will never buy polished again

It depends on the tire and tire size. The load rating of the tire is important.

I thought I bought a set of new R/T takeoffs but I am not getting a response, guy is busy but I wanna get these on before my wife changes her mind, took me a while to get her to agree now she is "when you getting those wheels" and "maybe you should look at other ones" man I want the RT ones. Get back to me please.
