I think 20" rims are overkill...18" are more than adaquate, 19" would be huge, 20" I think goes overboard. They would be so big and heavy unless you bought really expensive rims.

I'm probably showing my age here, but does anybody think that Q looks good with those wheels? They are way out of proportion in size for the wheel well and the rest of the car. I kinda see why people like them for big SUVs with huge wheel wells, but they just look strange on that car. It looks like a 12 year old kid with size 12 shoes. Add to that they are ugly as sin to begin with, and I'd rather have stock 90 pie pans. Of course, if you have to look like all your friends with 20" wheels, none of this matters.....:)

um... fits like a pensil in the cup.

If we're talking about look [IMHO]: 15"s are small for this body size, 17" - nice fit, everything more than 18" - is kiddy penisment extensions....but, look, it's like in sex, size does not really matter. :)

Heres somthin, do one of those Wild Eye things where you stare at the pic, just in the middle of the pic, you can tell that those are WAY TO BIG! And you know how much tires are for 20s?

I THINK THAT GOING UP MORE THAN TWO SIZES LINES YOU UP FOR A LOT OF TROULE DOWN THE ROAD ....THE CAR CAME WITH 15INCH UNLESS IT IS A TOURING THEN IT HAS 16....BUT YOU GOT TO DO YOU PIMP IT OUT AND DO THE DAMN THANG....

Alessio Wheels Unfortunately, they tend to come in narrower rim widths.
