After approx. 6 LONG weeks waiting for them to come in, I finally got my iForged Daytonas (Brushed Aluminum) put on.
Front: 20x8.5 - 3''Lip - 245/35/20
Rear: 20x10 - 4''Lip - 275/30/20
Didn't get a chance to take too many pics b/c I had to make the drive home, here's a few though...what do you guys think? Think I should get a small drop or no?

thanks for the compliments guys. I LOVE these wheels. I'm going to try and take some better pics and post tomorrow. If anyone is interested in iForged wheels, I highly recommend VIP Motorsports in Santa Ana. They have great prices and good staff. Thanks again guys!

AWESOME Pkoris, well done, but I am not 100% sure if you gotta drop that more...

Where do you use it more, tack, freeway or also in the city in/out of garages and roadbumps???
