I'm new to car customization and dont know the first thing about it. I want to purchase some black 20's or 22's for my 09. I was wondering if someone could suggest a nice rim that would fit without much further customization (spacers? offset? I dont really know what these even mean)
 
I don't have spacers on my wheels. but it depends on the wheel you get. Try and find a wheel design you like first, then see if it has your bolt pattern 5 x 114.3. then see if they come in 20 or 22's, and if they come in different widths. then find out the offset and use the offset calculator to see if the wheel will rub.

your stock wheel is 18 x 8 . So 20 x 8, or 22 x 8 should fit no problem. I think it will only rub if you have a really wide wheel or wide tires. i'm running 22 x 9, with either an 10 or 15 offset (I forgot) and 285/40/22 size tires.

These wheels are pretty sick. You might be able to work out a deal with him..

if you're getting new wheels, get wider wheels, 20/22 X 8" is some what limiting. and for a mean look, I suggest getting a staggered set. You should be good up to 9.5" with the right offset and no spacers. there's another thread that has pics of all kinds of wheels.
let me find that for you....

and can you also explain what your signature means?
 
I shyed away from staggered. I'm AWD, and your info saying yours is AWD also. You can do staggered, but you have to buy a different thickness in your rear tires. I think. If you don't it will mess with your AWD system, and say "slip". That's what i've read from this forum at least.
 
i think the AWD function remains undisturbed as long as the overall diameter of the wheels remain the same.

I believe he's running AWD. Unless you mean to stagger the lip.

no i didn't mean that because i hadn't noticed the AWD in his info. but this idea of yours is more appropriate.

So I think I found a set of rims... couple quesitons though.

First, what do you guys think?

ht tp://wheelstudio.c om/view-wheel/verde-wheels/arctic-black-with-chrome-inserts/wheel-size-22/wheel-bolt-pattern-all/wheel-price-all/vehicle-2230# (i had to put spaces in the url since i cant post links yet)

Second, the website says it has an offset of 35. Will this cause any rubbing or is that dependant on tire size?

Please excuse my ignorance:confused:
