Are 20's too big?

[wrx884]

I think 20's can look ok. Unless you have coilovers then you have to use 225 rubber and it looks crap! Tyres are skinnier than the wheels!

Agreed :thumbsup:

19 inch and 20 inch tyres are about the same price. but as i said before a 20 inch tyre usually doesnt have the correct load rating for a commy, ive been pulled up by nsw coppers and they dont say **** about my 20's, even though i have like 275 tyres on the rear. just depends on how bad the coppers are in your area

275's on the rears with 20s? u got a pic of those id like 2 see them on? and r they on ur VR?

lol, yes the tyre price is worth a set of rims alone

Just make sure u dont go the cheap way out yes they mayb expensive but if u can afford a set of 20's u should b able 2 spend up properly on a decent set of 20 tyres and not just the 1st cheap set u see that has the right load rating. Otherwise if u cant afford it go down 2 18s.

in QLD here the current law is you cannot go more then 2 inches bigger then the biggest size rim your car came out with (particular model came out with). However i have see countless times cops let them off for havering huge (20+) rims on....

Goddamn i've already done this once this thread. That is wrong. 15mm +/- original overall rolling diameter of tyre+rim combination. Every state except SA (and perhaps NT).

20s are uber lame. Keep it to 19s maximum, less wank factor.

i have to agree, i reckon 18-19''s look good. They are sporty and subtle. I may get flamed for this but i really dont like big 20'' BLING mags. I end up hating the car they are on rather than respecting the money used to mod it.
