my first set of aftermarket rims. wasn't sure about how i'd feel about 20's, but the deal i got on these was too good to pass up, and i'm happy with how they turned out. they look really aggressive while still maintaining a semi-stock feel. the only thing that sucks is my stock brakes look puny now, so those may get upgraded next.

Wheels look great. Congrats.

And I agree about the brakes.

nice wheels. i like the thin double spoke look. :) (im a SSR Werfen owner for my G).

very klean! Wheel finish goes well w/ the paint!

:tiphat: Good pick. They look nice on silver!

Good lookin' setup...love the color combo w/ the silver paint. More pics :tup:

thanks for the compliments guys. i can't wait to get some bigger rotors on there. they'll really look good with all that space in the rim. i plan on taking some pics with a photographer buddy of mine this weekend.

Wheels look great, I would like to see pics when you get a sec.

Side note - suddenly I find myself craving a Budweiser :icon17:

Looks good. Like the stance.

Nice. Those remind me of my first set of aftermarket wheels in the early 90's OZ Monte Carlos.

:woot: awesome. i'm glad you guys like em.

haha I feel like its a subliminal message/advertisement for Budweiser, combining a 370 and beer...gets me everytime!

Looks good, definitely upgrade the brakes next.

They look great!

Couple questions if you don't mind...

You have a base model I think?
Did you notice a difference in acceleration or anything else going from 18's to 20's?

I have a base and am thinking about doing the same...

Thanks!

na i have touring. and these wheels aren't too heavy, 27 lbs front, 29 rear, or something close to that. but in any case, whatever acceleration i lost in weight to the wheels, i definitely made up for in grip. those 305's in the rear definitely hold a hell of a lot better then my stocks, so my acceleration "feels" a whole lot better, but really i'm just gettin my power to the floor.

that's pretty heavy...

comparatively to some lightweight volks or advans, they're very heavy. but 4-5 lbs over stock isn't too bad in my mind, especially since she's my street ride and will likely never be tracked. if i do ever decide to take it that route i will definitely look into a lighter setup.
