Since you specifically asked.........................



.................ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just plain awful!! plus, I did not see the bolt pattern (5 x 114.3) even listed, so it may be a moot point.

But the style of the rims. Nope.

This style is nice on our cars.
At 20". it's going to be heavy and the overall quality is unknown...for $650

Of course if you like them, get them.

Sorry but what are you talking about? You need it to be 114.3 x 5 and it doesnt say what offset those wheels are... you need to find out.

Ride will be harsh wiht those wheels, you will most probebly have to go wtih a 245/30/20 setup or 35 side wall if you really want it.

If everything checks out and you do get those..... you better get rid of those boosters, it will look SOOOO goofy with those huge rims on it and it lifted. It will look like a 4x4. So lower it if you get those and it will look alright i think.

I like the rim but the center cap with teh cheap "L" made in it is awful.
It is a lorensor knock off , but they look good no matter who makes them as they have an understated style.
You would want atleast a 245 35 20 tire not a 30 series on 245.
