It would look cheap, ricey and s**t. 20" is a bit over-ambitious considering the money you'll be spending on rubber, as well as guard rubbing issues (I get rubbing with my 18's AND i've had the guards rolled). I'll never understand some people's desires to get these FULLY SICK chrome up to the nostrils eyesores. Seriously, it'll destroy your car's looks in a quick instant.

But hey, different strokes for different folks, so if you don't agree with me, i suppose i can go to hell. Just offering my 2c, but i shake my head in shame at people with these kinda rims.

be prepared to pay big bucks... ive 19s n even "nankangs" in that size are $240 brandnew... you'd be looking at around $300 per side brand new for tyres....it was a tight fit with the 19s but superlows in the front n ultralows in the rear doesnt help.. :lol: had to have the "lip" of the guards rolled so they dont scrub.. mine are 245/35/19s... anybody mention shipping costs? (if from america) tax? offset??

Would look "sik" eh.
Geez why do these youngens come on here and say they are going to buy 20" rims from america that would look "sik" on a falcon.
No offence mate but you sound like your dreaming, set your sights on a reasonable sized rim, and also a resonable design.
Just my opinion, but a nice chunky 5 spoke rim would look better then that.
Btw how much money do you actually have, that you plan to spend on wheels+tyres?
