Here's a pic of my car as is right now. I'm looking to sell the spinners that are on it now for a new set of rims and an air ride kit.

Honestly...why 20"s? It's a cool design, go with 18"s if you ask me, 20"s are begging for trouble. 20"s look nice on trucks, and maybe a 300 or a Charger, but not a GA.

I love the deep dishes. But personally i wouldnt put 20's on my GA. I know it might be hard switching to a smaller rim but it will look better IMO

100x better than the current wheels. Having said that, I am personally against any wheel that has rivits in it, but that's just me

i love those rims and they will look very nice on your black car.

take experience from me though... i had 20s, and i moved to 18s and they still look very good. as long as you go with AT LEAST 18x8, not anything skinnier like a 7.5 or 7 wide. i just cleaned my car since i removed my kit, and i will post detailed pics soon of how good my 18s look with the 225/40/18 tires. they are a nice even look for the car. PLUS not to mention your ride will be a lot better and smoother than on 225/35/20 tires like i had before. i felt like i was steering a dump truck lol

Like I said I'm in the process of shopping for an air ride system so whenever I'm not driving or at the shows I can just slam it. IMO the GA makes any wheel I put on it look smaller for some reason. I matched up a set of 18s before I bought these wheels on it now and they just looked tiny to me. I like the 20's it puts it up off the ground a little more so I don't bottom out as easy. (I live in Pittsburgh, aka F****d up road city) or maybe i just drive like an a***ole. I don't know though. I like these a lot and smallest available size is 20"
Yeah I'll admit that the ride was really harsh. and it shortened the life of my rack and pinion dramatically. guess they were too damn heavy.(damn thing started leaking already. Only 34000 on the car!)

Thanks for your opinions guys greatly appreciated...

i like everything minus the rivets......if u get 20''s dont get them wide if your gonna get bags, my 18's are 7.5 i think and they hit my upper frame rail inside the fender preventing me from laying unibody by about a half inch

Ghetto-fabulous. Get 18's.. or 19's at most.

if u put 18's on and lower it 2 inches it will most likely give you the illusion that ur still on 20's. my rims are only 18 and people say they look like 19's or 20's. its becuase the car is lowered 2 inches on sprint springs. if ur gonna go with bags then ull deffinetly be able to make 18's look good and ull still have plenty of room in the fender for slaming. i recomend u go with 18's.

i like the 20's more than the current ones, if ur getting air ride its going to be rough anyway, why not do 20's. on the other hand, if its ur daily driver, maybe its not a good idea. i personally like 20's on a GA though. good luck with it!

I wouldn't put 20's on a car. Sorry.

Your asking for trouble putting something with the much weight at the end of an axil which wasn't meant to turn something half it's mass.

Get the air and then 20s.

If you can't tuck your 20s then it looks like poo IMO.

20's on a car... I wouldn't do it. Harsh ride quality and just unnecessary.

20" Spinners a car ftl...

Im diggin the new rims...Imo the spinners look a bit much... But as others said im not so much into the rivits... I had rims wit rivits and there a bit*ch to clean... As for 20's i would say maybe 19's at biggest... I had 20's and they were nuttin but trouble! Nice ride though... ~Samantha~

The only thing worse than 20" wheels, are 20" wheels with the ugly lugnut cover that uses an allen wrench to remove.
