I don't like them at all, I think 19" fit the car best, I can't image driving over North Jersey roads with anything bigger than that.

My Ride: FOR STARTERS I LOWERED THE CAR USING H&R SPRINGS. I CHANGED THE EMBLEMS TO BLACK AND CARBONFIBER ALSO ADDED CARBON FIBER DOOR SILL COVERS. I PUT ON A SET OF 22X9 - 22X10.5 AZA FORGED MYSTIC 2TONE BLACK AND MACHINED WRAPPED IN PIRELLI P ZERO NERO 245/30/22 AND 285/25/22. AC SCHNITZER REAR TRUNK SPOLER. ZENETTI BODY KIT CONSISTING OF A FRONT LIP, SIDE SKIRTS AND REAR APRON. RECENTLY ADDED 12INCH ANNIVERSERY EDITION JL SUB POWERED BY A JL 500X1 AMP IN A CUSTOM ENCLOSURE WRAPPED IN CARBON AND AUBURN VINLY WITH PLEXI. AUXILARY INPUT WITH IPOD ADAPTER.
TO ALL YOU FOLKS WITH YOUR QUESTIONS AND YOUR COMMENTS. "NO THEY DONT RUB" FRONT OR BACK . I AM A RIM AND TIRE WHOLESALER IN THE BAY AREA, SO FOR ME ITS A SELLING TOOL NOT THE BLING BLING SOME OF YOU MAY SAID. SO YEAH ITS LOOKS BEFORE PERFORMANCE FOR ME , BUT I HAVE HIT 140MPH RACING A FRIENDS 350 WITH NO PROBLEM. SO THE PERFORMANCE IS STILL THERE. LUCKILY THE ZENETTIS FORGED WHEELS I SWITCHED FROM THE DONZ WHEELS TOO ARE ALOT LIGHTER SO THE ACCELERATION IS THE SAME I HADE WITH MY 20 INCH LOWENHARTS WITH CAST CENTERS. THE OVERALL HEIGHT OF THE WHEELS AND TIRES ARE ABOUT A 1 1/2 INCH TALLER THAN MY STOCK MINI ME 17'S SO ITS NOT TOO MUCH OF A DIFFERENCE THAN WHAT U THINK. WELL IF THERE IS ANY MORE COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS FEEL FREE TO ASK

Nice to hear from you
So just to clearify something, you did a simple fender roll front and rear and your offsets are high 20s and that was it? Direct bolt on? No shaving parts or anything odd?
