Just wanted to know if you guys had any suggestions or recommendations for some black rims. I want to upgrade here in the near future. I know you can fit 20x8.5 all around(acutally, i think), but can you fit 20x9.5 in the rear? Any thoughts?

NEEZ QD-7 in hyperblack.

Yeah, 8.5 in front, 9.5 in back should work AFAIK. It'll have a nice stagger to it.

You can fit 20x10.5 out back. That's what I'm running. You can fit up to 20x11 out back and you can fit up to 20x9. The wheel selection is endless. Depends on your budget. IForged, Asanti, DPE, HRE, Radenergie .................... etc.

Have you guys upgraded you rotors with new wheels? I'd prefer not to have to do that, so I'd like a rim that is fuller and will cover the old rotors. What do you think? New rotors worth it or not?

Haven't upgraded the rotors.

As for a "rim that is fuller and will cover the old rotors", how about these. Painted black of course.
