If you want 20s and want to keep the comfort of the car and avoid rubbing go with my setup. I haven't rubbed once. The tire specs I gave are good.

can you please share your exact setup?

Is it 20x9 offset +38 with 235/30/R20 and 20x10,5 offset +45 with 255/30R20 No Lowering?

Great looking car, those wheels look perfect on that Nebula Grey. Is the ride still pretty smooth with the 20" rims?

Hey guys,

I have almost no experience when it comes to wheels so this thread has been GREAT. After seeing what you guys have been posting I looked up to wheels and am interested in the following: WORK Gnosis GS1 or GS3, Avarus AV8 or AV6, and OZ superturismo GT. I'm borderline obsessed with the OZ superturismo GT in black because I think the red writing in the middle will look amazing when I get my red Chicago Blackhawks plates. What do you guys think? Any input would help....thanks!

BBS RS For the win! 20x8.5 Front / 20x9.5 Rear

Only concern, besides price, is that they will rub a lot with the RS*R Super Downs. I am also a n00b when it comes to tire sizing... Either way, I have time to save
