thanks! they are replica bmw wheels. another member here and I are rocking both the m5 and m6 style in 20 inch.

they are made in china but they are pretty good for the price. I haven't had any problems with these at all.

That is one of the classiest max's I have ever seen.

even 19" can look good with the proper aggressive fit.

Depending on the manufacturer you can get a similar stretch. I have seen 275's on a 10" wheels with a straight-up sidewall. However, I'm running Falken 452's on my 10's and my first instinct was to run 275 rears. When we mounted them up, they stretched out just like that. I'm not a big fan of that look if not completely dropped so I swapped them for 285's. Now they sit "square" just like I like 'em

Wow, that does not look like 22s to me. Tell them to go ahead and get rid of that fender space with some springs! Looks good and I like the wheel choice as well.

Thanks Dieseldan. Wheels 20x8.5" front and 20x10" rear with BC Coilovers for the drop that I just got installed today. Still needs to settle a little bit.

Would 20x8.5 with a +36 mm offset and 20x10 with a +45 mm offset. Look ok on a max that's stock height? They are the FR500's for a mustang but I thought they would look good just don't know about the offset?

Sounds like it should. I believe factory wheels are a +50 offset and people throw +15 spacers on those. You should be good to go...mustangs are 5x114 bolt pattern? I always thought they were 5x112 for some reason.

Not true at all. Most people get new springs to lower the car, but not because they go bad. Also have not heard of anyone with shock issues either.

To me, all 3 you mentioned aren't worth the price. All 3 are 1 piece cast if I'm not mistaken. If you ever damage a cast wheel, and it's un-repairable, you're stuck with the other 3 wheels. If you get a 2 or 3 piece wheel, hit a pothole, you can just replace the lip.

One of my rims has a pretty noticeable bend, and the way it's designed, several places I went to couldn't fix it. So I will never by 1 piece cast again.
