Couldn't wait, the Vellano 20's were begging to be mounted. If it snows, she'll stay in the garage, but I seriously doubt it will snow in NY again (until December). I am SO PSYCHED with how the car looks now. Perfect aggression, imho. The ride isn't compromised at all (from the 19s), and I haven't experienced any rubbing other than some contact on right front fender when hitting dips in the road. I have to take a closer look at that.

What do y'all think?

I am in Westchester, but I do drive in Manhattan fairly often. I will be REALLY careful and hope for the best. Thanks for your feedback!

Looks horrible. :thumbsdown: I think you should get rid of em and sell them to me


Who am I kidding, the wheels look amazing on your car! Are you on the stock sport suspension or did you lower? The stance looks perfect to me. Well done!!

Looks great!

I think the brushed window trim and the chrome kidney grills would look better than shadowline stuff now that you have baller polished wheels.
