You asked a pretty straight forward question and I handed you your most precise answer on a silver platter. Which is rare because in most case I would direct them to a thread where they can find the answer (because most users think searching is too damn difficult). In my case not only did I give you the exact wheel sizes and offsets and tire sizes, I also gave you not one, not two but THREE links which was filled with useful information related to your question. And what do you do? Instead of taking my advise or reading the 3 links I provided for you, you completely disregard anything I said and change your mind to 20". AND you ask it in this very same thread even though I showed you to a link where most people ask their wheel fitment questions. Well if my answers aren't appreciated, no worries it's all good. But you better grow some wings, cause you're flying solo now.

Do I have an ego? F*** yea I do. I got it after years and years of researching, studying, measuring and testing. And if I come off as a bitter a*****e there's usually a warranted reason behind it. So don't gimme that crap about about "having more experience than you guys combined" when here you are asking the questions.

When you've been on this forum as long as some of us have, or wonder why some of us have egos or have become bitter, you'll notice there is a new thread made almost everyday regarding "Do these fit", "What offset is flush", "whats that most flush setup I can get without rolling" etc. etc. etc. After seeing new threads hundred times it wears thin and just gets old. There are threads made specifically for for asking your wheel/tire fitment questions. Why it is not "Sticky"d yet is beyond me. They should rename the thread the "Ask you wheel/tire questions in here or be prepared for the reckoning"

Oh by the way, check out on the front pages theres about 3 questions about wheel fitment.

Go with 19s looks better with stock body.
