Default Looking for RIMS

Hi folks,

Need new summer tires, so going to take this opportunity to get some new shoes along with it. Currently got 17s, looking to jump to 19s or 20s (I believe 20s are the max).

Looking for some feedback, recommendations, what do I need to look for when buying a rim, size, key points to look for etc.

Thanks for your help in advance

Wouldn't right now be the time to think about winter wheels/tires? Or are you set with winter stuff and thinking ahead?

Regarding the wheels, Google "Lexus IS 250" and click images. Copy/paste the vehicles with the types of wheels onto the thread here you like the best.

Ughhhh I know right? I hate when peope refer to wheels as rims. The rim is the outer part of the wheel, not the wheel itself. But in all honesty I used to call them rims before too until someone pointed out to me what Rims were . From then on, it always seemed dumb to me when people called them rims. (No offense OP, like i said i was in the same boat lol)
