Sorry to bring this up but I have a friend who is willing to trade his 20's for my 18 cause his are too big for the car!!

think they would fit on my car?

Specs 20x8 +38mm offset on 245/35/20 keep in mind I am lowered on eibach sportlines....

The wheels will fit (as long as the hub bore is greater than 60.1mm), but you'll cut up those tires in no time. You'll want 225/30-20 tires for those wheel specs & the Sportline drop.

Potential reasons not to get 20" wheels:

#1. Need for rubberband sized tires to clear fenders
#2. Stiff ride due to very little sidewall height of tires
#3. Tire damage from potholes due to almost no sidewalls
#4. Wheel damage from potholes or curbs
#5. Decreased acceleration from heavy weight
#6. Decreased mpg from heavy weight
#7. Decreased braking response (and increased brake pad wear) from heavy weight
#8. Decreased handling (resistance to turn-in) from heavy weight located further out from center of wheel

Not trying to dissuade you from 20's, just making sure you're fully informed before making a decision that you might regret later if you didn't know what issues might crop up.

hmmm to be honest bud I was on the fence about the 20's because of most of the things you listed....I mean I like the idea of rolling big but thanks for the info I have been persuaded to stay with my 18's...lol

thanks bud... I was only gonna get them cause they were free but glad I posted up before I got them!!

Here's my 08 xb2 on TSW Vortex 20x8.5 with (in these pics) 235/35/20 Hankook Ventus V4's, now has Nitto NT555 in the same size.

@CPL_McMillan_USMC: Nice Rumion tails there. Are those side vents painted on, or did you cast them in there legit?

These are my favorite of the bunch, but I am biased because I wish I could own some iForged's.

Pyroman131: no, they're not painted on, but no, I did not cast them in there myself...they're the GT Concept Fenders from Extreme Dimensions...I got them back in either Dec 07 or Jan 08, can't quite remember.

Read post #25 above for potential reasons not to get 20's. That said, tire size that will work w/o rubbing will depend on your drop, and the width & offset of the wheels.
