wheels have the most effect on the overall look of the car, but at the same time choosing them is the hardest.

sorry no 20s guys, just up to 19s. but even if there were 20s available, I would suggest just getting the 19s because these wheels have no lip so they appear bigger. I remember when I had my 128s in 19s some people thought they were 20s. plus with 19s, you can have the standard sizes with a thicker sidewall compared to if they were 20s without any chance of rubbing. you can still put tires with thicker sidewalls on 20s (like I have and Joe himself and other members) but fenders will have to be cut and/or rolled. just my opinion on sizes regarding wheels with no lip

Like I said in another post...these are only wheels. If you don't like them after a year or two, for whatever reason, change them. The problem is when you see them as a permanent fixture on your car. Well, they're not.
Anyone who mistakes these for $3.5K BBS RS-GTs are idiots. VMR is VMR, not BBS, HREs, etc.... This is a work car, not a friggin work of art car.

"This is a work car, not a friggin work of art car."
Out of curiousity then, why change the wheels at all? Why not just keep what came on the car?
