I will buy Jack Stands!!!
There's really not much out there that's different than my stock rims, and I'm not gonna buy something in the same basic design unless it's a different color or to fit bigger tires better

Very true. How much bigger of a tire can you get on those factory wheels??? They are alloy right? I bet if you took some time to polish them they would look pretty sweet.

Around $100 each depending on the size. Like a 15x8 is $85, 15x10 is $93.
Not cheap, but not too bad either. Prolly cuz they are American Racing brand.

Yeah, the factory wheels are alloy, and are actually in really good shape. They've just got some faded blotches on the back ones. I haven't hit them too hard with polish or anything, but I'm sure they'd look great afterwords. There's no curb rash or anything. They've even got the fake bead locks too

People have gone all the way up to 35x12.50 on the stock 15x7.5 rim. Just gotta keep the air pressure in line so the tires dont wear too much in the middle, 'cause of the sidewall flex. The highest I would want to go on them is a 10.50 tire. For a 12.50, I'd prefer to have a 10 inch rim.

WOW 12.5 is wide. IDK about that hahaha I could maybe see the 10.5's but even that is wide.
Talk to a local body shop, some will bead blast rims and then clear them for you. I had that done on my Firebird. There are also wheel recon shops that do the same thing. That too is an idea.

Hola! Que pasa, esse? Donde estas en deciembre? Nosotros hablamos Espanol! Ingles es muerte 
10.50s on stock 7.5s is common practice, but I'm with you, 12.50 is extreme for a rim that small.
I don't even know where a body shop is around here that is off 15th street... I only know of Tires Plus and Tire Kingdom around here.
