I have seen atleast 20 GMC Sierras so far with those rims on them, the fourth one looks the best.

i've seen the 4th ones on the trucks and they look good. the others seem like standard truck wheels. nothing special.

i hate em. with rims aftermarket is the way to go. and to answer the question about 20" wheels, probably not in that design.. but chevy(of course they'll fit sierra) has plus sized wheels for silverado..

GM introduces a new collection of 20" wheels. Tested and validated specifically for select models of Chevrolet Silverado they offer unsurpassed fit, quality, and safety. Plus they're backed by GM's New-Vehicle Limited Warranty when permanently installed on a GM vehicle prior to new-vehicle delivery. For important details please review the Guidelines for Usage. They're big in size. Big on style. And make a big statement on the road. There are 10 designs to choose from - all exclusive to GM - available in polished, chrome, or machined finishes. See your Chevrolet dealer for additional information.

20" Wheels will be available, however they will all be optional equipment.

I agree. For the aftermarket companies, they must LOVE the OEM wheel selections ... I mean, it's almost as if the OEM wheels are designed to drive people to the aftermarket for an appealing wheel.

GM so rarely has a hit with a wheel design, so I have no expectations for nice wheels from them.

the Escalade Platinum Edition 20" inchers are pretty tight, and they'd fit right on any GM half-ton pickup. there's no telling how much you'd pay for them at your local Cadillac store, but perhaps no more than for a set of decent aftermarket wheels, and they'd be GM.

I think GM has some of the best wheels out there. Ford's wheels suck, Chrysler/Dodge wheels all look the same, Honda/Toyota all basically have the same design of wheels.
