i think that they look pritty sick. but lemme ask would twenties fit under there well?
From what I've read, 19's are the largest, but 17's/18's are more practical.
Why would you want 20's anyway? A rubberband for a tire, bent wheels the first pothole you hit, and an extremely hard choppy ride. These cars stand nothing to gain except weight and heartache w/that big a wheel.

i think one person on this forum had 20's on his/her 3 sedan.
therewas virtually no wheel gap, and the car wasnt even lowered.. lol.

and i think the guy had chrome rims, on a silver car [:'(]

I like these just a little better. But why spend the money on them? The stock ones honestly look damn good.

One more wheel

http://www.wheelmax.com/wheelcolors....or=Gun%20Metal

I really want to get these but am currently waiting to hear back from the seller to see if they have the correct offset for 18x7.5 size. Either 45 or 48.
