Anyone successfully put 20's on there ride?

TWENTY-TWO'S? Sorry, but that's just plain ugly. There is a point where it is overkill, folks. 18's on a 4th gen is plenty, as are 19's on a 5th gen. Beyond that looks chintzy and draws attention away from the car itself, rather than blending with the total package. My opinion, true, but I bet most hold it.

looks better than i expected but still i believe it is over-kill, I wouldnt go with anything bigger than 19" on a 4th or 5th gen. Also, the reason (i think) they look good at all at that size, is because they are chrome, which I am not a particularly huge fan of. But to each his own. They look better than i expected.
Now imagine some dolt putting 21" silver finish, racing wheels on his maxima.

20's will fit with no problems if the car is not dropped. u have to roll the back fender if u lower a little. i had to roll the front and back with ground control.

When I was replacing my brake pads this week, I noticed that my rims were rubbing a little bit on the inside of the wheel well. Its nothing serious, but I still noticed it. I've only got 17" x 8" with 235/45ZR17. I'm lowered about 1.5" with Eibach Pro-Kit and I have Koni shocks. Has anyone else gotten any rubbing with rims this small??

I've seen plenty of 4th Gens with 20's down South. The size looked ok but I didn't like some of the rim designs..

they do fit but they rub and if its lowered like my friends you will bottom out. I dont think its worth all the trouble he cut his fender walls out and it didnt help. but if you want 20"s go for it but 18"s will ride and fit alot better
