Default 20's on a TC

will it fit ? would the ride be bumpy? can i lower it ? does anybody have pic w/ a TC on 20's? Im just thinking about getting them thats all ... i was thinking about gettting 19's but i figure 19's are just as expensive as 20's.

you can fit 20's on the tC.
check out the latest issue of modified mag that has the Nitto/Jotech tC
on the cover. It's running on 20x8in Linea Sport with +40 offset rims on 225/30ZR20
Nitto Neo-Gen tires. Yes, it is lowered on Tein SS coilovers w/EDFC
It's currently dynoe'd at 533whp/506 lb-ft torque @30psi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Go to www.modifiedmag.com to check out some pics

Personally I would probably stick to 18's or 19's cuz you could lower
more not unlike 20's even with coilovers.
20's on your tC is adding too much unsprung weight on all corners and
that would retract the performance on your tC.

That's just my opinion

Without forced induction a tC sittin on 20's would be a slug with how much they weigh. I wouldn't consider them.

the 20's i plan on putting on my tc are not that bad, they are like 26lbs, however they are not chrome. I do plan on either the TRD supercharger or Turbo, have not made up my mind yet.

they are Volt Racing 753

if you plan to go for performance, then id go with smaller wheels. as a general standard, larger than 18" wheel will decrease the performance. a lightweigh 18" volk racing wheel would go nice on a performance themed car.

If you like big wheels.. then dont settle for 19's i settled for 18's for price and pound and now im paying. 20's arent that much heavier, they look a lot sweeter, and you dont even have to lower the car. Be different get 20's. I would suggest 20x7.5's there aren't a lot out there, but just to keep the tires from rubbing. Im ordering 20's for mine as soon as winter is over. Goodluck

is that why the nitto tc went w/ 20s
that car was built for performance and went w/ 20s

they did it b/c it look good, thats why i am doing it.
i already have the wheels and they are going on in the spring.
i know it will kill my performance alittle but i am willing to give it up to roll on 20s
