Will the es6 look dumb its its 9.5 all around instead of 11 in rear? I really would like to avoid fender mods if all possible without sacrificing the good look of my SC

I don't get why people hate on 20's for the SC. If done correctly, 20's look great on the SC. Any size wheel can and will look stupid if not set up properly. Do.a search and you'll find plenty of SC's on 20's. some look great, while other may not be your taste, but at least you can see for your.self.

Here a couple links to get you started.

IMO, 20's look better with a Body Kit but again that's just my personal opinion. However, with proper fitment, a front lip and lowering on coilovers, etc. I have seen some Stock bodied SC's that look great. Here are two..

One is Ryan's and the other is a personal friend who's not on the boards. Again, these are Stock bodied SC's with just a front lip and lowered..

It all depends on ride height, wheel style etc but in my opinion 20's are the perfect size for the SC. Here's mine with 20x8.5 & 20x10 taken yesterday.

IIRC scot originaly had a 97 kit before the jic magic ,,and his car still looked great , yea im sure it was lowered a tad but his car is not slammed.

20's with a 97 kit on a stock hieght will look just as good or better then a 97 kit stock height with 17's-18's or 19's, anyways not arguing with u man but why don't you post some of the cars on 20's that look like ****, I keep hearing everyone mentioning they look 'donk' and 'ghetto' but im not seeing any pics to prove it.

agreed, how many people running with 17's 18's and 19's and their car looks like complete ****, ever since I joined here there is a cult of people hating on 20's for some reason.
