true...idk for right now im sticking with 18"s..20"s are too expensive and look like crap on the tc and the 19"s are too uncommon and they dont have the size i want in the wheel

probably diablo something.idk im a chrome fan

its a matter of opinion.......20"s will definatly decrease your over all peformance, braking and speedo......
but if you dont care about all that.......then 20's look somewhat decent if done right......
the big issue is the diameter of the tire, not really the rim......

while 20's are actually less for the tires then 19's from the 20's ive seen on Tc's im not impressed, the biggest issue for me is ........tire size is a 235/35-20 and a 19" is the same size, makes the overall diameter too big, now if they had a 235/30 series tire it would make the diameter more acceptable........and less like a roller skate.

that chrome rim that i posted, the ST2 is made in a 20" and i think that would look nice, im not a fan of chrome, but they look sweet in 20".

dont buy those junk brands like diablo or baccarat, or for that matter any rim that tries to sound highdollar, they are poorly made, and have poor structural integrity my freind works in the wheel industry and has for the last 15 years, he says alot of the chrome rims get sent out anyways becuase once they are chromed you cant see the defects he wont even sell them for liablity reasons.....

well i've definately come to know i want 18"s.I love my performance.speed.etc and i
'd rather have that than cheap rims

I know Enkei is a great brand for the alloy/racing type
Any other stylish brand names i should know about

Ordering the bodykit and the rims in about two weeks or so.and i'd rather get the best opinions before doing anything stupid.

2400 is a good deal for chrome 20" rims installed......

you just said you liked your performance, you will definatley loose all that with 20"s.......

i like the idea of evo5's......also 20" chrome rims are going to be really heavy and may cause issues with braking, like breake fade, or other issues with the rotational mass being much heavier then the 18"......

go 18"
check out rota too, they make some intresting rims........
