Here is my V with 20" wheels

I NEED TO LOWER IT... WILL POST BETTER DAY TIME PICS

[Clipsed]

lol wow those are big!!! Not on a V though in my opinion, I will stick with some 18's, but nice choice I do like the rims!! Yea get some better pics, I wanna PS em and put em on my car outta curiousity! never know I might like 20's on mine! hahaha what about a price break down for us? each rim, each tire, and total!? and where you got them from? thx for the pic!

[proxim2020]

Wow, those are massive. I'd prefer something that was smaller and have more of a tucked in look. 17" would probably be my max.

[Nick240sx]

i think they are the perfect choice of wheel. please. tell me where you got them.

[eduenrique]

if you do a sharp turn at low speed and bump something do you notice anything different than when it has the stock 15" wheels?

I'm asking because I want to know if the front suspension can handle that size of wheels?

thanks for your feedback!

[Clipsed]

if you keep the overall diameter the same as stock, there is not much of a difference, as you are keeping the same height, you will have a lower profile tire. Im just glad you didnt do as most people around me do and lift the car up a lil bit to put some 24's on it! JEEZ I hate that!

[CodeRed]

i like the rims but your right it needs to be droped a little

HEY ITS VERSAPARTS I BEEN BANDED FROM POSTING. THEY THINK IM I VENDOR WHICH I'M NOT.SO I MADE A NEW NAME . WILL POST UNDER THIS ONE AND WILL NOT "ADVERTISE".

[Clipsed]

lol lol jp jp man, nice to see u bak!

[versaondubs]

I WILL POST PICS LATER....THE CAR FEELS JUST A LITTLE STIFFER, BUT FEELS GOOD. IT DOES NOT RUB....I MIGHT BE GETTING THE EIBACH SPRING ... I BOUGHT THE RIMS FOR $330 AND $550 FOR NITTO 225/30/20..TOTAL$880 WHICH IS NOT BAD

[Clipsed]

lol rims were cheaper than the tires!!! wow, Im looking at some 17s right now, all black, PSing em on my car, my total cost will be about the same, wheels are $110 each, and tires $85 each, so $780 + the shipping cost of $65 is $845. Now I just gotta get the fedz to get em!!! lol!

You were warned in your initial post, and two of your posts edited for violations.... and then you proceeded to do the exact same thing again. That is why you were banned.

You have also now circumvented your banning, which if I'm not mistaken is also grounds for a ban. You are on EXTREMELY thin ice here.

20" way to big on the V for a daily driven ride bro..

[marleyfan]

Yeah I tend to agree. 20" look a bit goofy to me. But to each their own.

First, please turn All Caps off. It's hard to read, and it looks like you're shouting.

Second, don't you think you're brakes look ridiculously small with 20" wheels?

Third (and correct me if I'm wrong), Doesn't that kill your performance? All that unsprung weight and inertia can not be good for acceleration, braking, suspension response, and who knows what else.

I always subscibed to the school of thought that the only purpose for bigger wheels was to house bigger brakes. This car already has 11" discs up front, so bigger brakes would be overkill (IMO), so I"ll only ever have 15" (maybe 16") wheels on mine...if it ever gets here.

I'm not so ignorant that I don't realize that style and appearance are factors of wheel choice. If that's what you're going for, and like what you've got then power to you.

I originally had 20's on my truck, but I removed them for 17's. Why? Well the truck used to be my daily driver along with weekend hauler. The factory wheels were some of the heaviest wheels I've ever seen. By switching to the smaller/lighter wheel, my gas mileage instantly went up. It responds a little bit better since there's not as much weight to move in the front wheels. The beast of an engine comes alive with the slightest touch. It's cheaper to buy tires. I can get premium 17's for the price of crappy 20's. The wheels do look much smaller than the 20's, but I could drop my truck slightly to make them look perfect. The current look doesn't bother me so I'll keep the money in my pocket.

Depends on the situation. Normally, stock wheels are very heavy, even stock alloy wheels. Plus sizing the wheels by one and using a relatively light weight wheel (I'm not saying go nuts and buy Rota Circuit 8's) will decrease the unsprung weight and rotational mass of the vehicle by making the wheels overall lighter.

Also, if you are attempting to improve handling by getting better rubber, you usually have a better selection of tires with a slightly larger wheel, which reduces the profile of the tire. Most sport tires are not available in a sidewall aspect of over 55. They generally run in the range of 40-55 (they are available in smaller aspect ratios, but then the ride gets stupidly harsh).

Biggest difference I noticed in a car I had owned was when I had my Saturn SC1... 175/70/14's were the stock tire, I went to a 205/55/15 afterwards. Accelerated more quickly, and the handling was such a night and day difference afterwards. I'd imagine you'd see the same kind of performance going to a comparable 16"... maybe a 205 or 215 width if it doesn't rub.

Plus, 16's are a lot cheaper than 17's. And I think you can buy a full set of 16's for what a single Dub would cost.

Good points. Hadn't thought about the "I'd like fries with that" weight of the OEM wheel.

20"?? wow~ it fit?? how many holes do you have on ur rim?
