Thinking of getting those wheels. (Photoshop)

[GetLuckiFX]

Am thinking of getting those wheels for my ride. What do you all think? 20", don't want it to get too stiff but still get a nice size and beefyness. They have a 2.5" polished lip.

Photoshopped them on my FX, not the best job, just to give an idea. Didn't feel like spending too much time on it :wink (2):

those are nice, and where are u getting them from?

Personally you should get 22"s and your in Cali! The roads can't be as bad as the Midwest or East Coast. :tongue (2):

The ride won't be that much stiffer versus 22"s.

They will look much smaller than they do in your photoshop.

You'd think Cali has good roads. But it's also a "work in progress" in some areas. I will chech 22" and see how I like it. Found them on line in New York. Can't find anything locally that I like.

Yeah I didn't keep the right proportions.

Adam, I would definitely go with 22" for sure. 22" on 285/40 tires still give you a real good ride. Not stiff/hard at all. Don't do 20"!

Listen to him, lol. He got you in the right direction with the skid plate mod.

I've seen these wheels on 20's being on the fx and I can't agree more in going 22's (ONLY). You'll save lots of headaches.

Another vote for 22's, a lipped 20 looks like it's an 18". In your PS, you have a 22 on there. Nice wheel, that's for sure.

Good advice from everyone, much appreciated, I needed that extra forum group vote Thanks guys.

And yes Andy did get me started in a good direction, I'm not even going to question anything else Aero

I'd stick with the stock 20s over those wheels. Just saying.

I've seen those rims on 20's before and they don't look very good. I'd say go for the 22's as well. I have the very same rims and I love them! Here's a shots of my ride.

Nice wheels, but damn those are some skinny tires.... no potholes in Canada?

 

[GetLuckiFX]

Thanks for the pics!! They look good but yeah I think I'd need thicker tires.

There are alot of potholes in Canada actually lol. Where I live none of them are really too severe and I always try to drive carefully.

Yeah I'm running on 30 series tires. You might want to go 35 or 40 for ride comfort. I opted for the 30s so I can get it to drop lower.

I will definitely need to go for 40, my commute to work is pretty rough lol. :bomb:

 

[AeroBFA]

I have 35 series and I like the look. 40 series is a little too tall for me.

 

[GetLuckiFX]

I'll put both on and compare. Thanks for the ideas guys
