I think I may have posted a couple pics in somebody elses thread a while ago when somebody was asking if 20's would fit

And yes It needs bigger brakes, I'm gonna do the 6th gen swap and it will help a bit but would be nice to have an actual bbk

LOTS!

Funny thing is I ran better 1/4 mile times than with my 19's that weigh only 19.5 lbs. The heavy wheels eliminated my wheel hop and helped me get traction but did lower my trap by 1mph

as 20s go, they're not too bad, actually....

but i still think 20s are a bit too much for a 5th gen.

Ya, I got a good deal on them. FREE! So I figured I'd rock them for a while. I just love the way they tuck and eliminate any wheel gap.

I'm sure when spring comes I'll be back on some 19's, I change my rims frequently
