Got my new 20's put on.. let me know what you think!
To many guys here, these 20" rims are going to be considered "over-the-top" and/or too blingy.
I am happy with them.. even though they weight a TON! The tires are 245/35/20s in the front, and 255/35/20s in the rear. Rims are 20" 8.5 front, 9" rear, both +38 offset. I am not going to deny the fact that it would look better lowered, cause I agree. I am not gonna BS and say "Oh I like the way it looks all lifted up high", but honestly it isnt as bad as I thought it would be so I dont mind it for now. As you can see, I dont have the mufflers on it, but I will be putting tips on there soon as well.
Let me know what you think.. be brutally honest.
Also, sorry about the crappy pictures (I had to use my cell cause I lost my digicam charger), AND I apologize for the kink in your neck you might get from looking at two of the sideways pictures. I am not responsible for any damages.

I honestly was surprised how big they did look when I got them on there, cause I dont think 20's usually look that big on a 1gen. Oh well...
By the way Pure.. Do you have any pics of your car? I have never seen a picture of it, but I have been wondering what it looks like for some time now, especially since you have so many posts!
Thanks for the comments, by the way!

I do agree that the front tire does stick out ALLIITTTLLEE too much. (so its not just the pics ).

Puredrifter,
I love the look of your car, very nice and clean!
Flipmoe,
I read what he did awhile ago... if I remember correctly he had Tanabes (2"'s?) and Tokicos. If I do drop it in the future, I do plan to use that same setup. Thanks!!

Yeah, it's definitely normal. The front brakes apply more force to stop the car, so naturally they generate more heat, making the front rims hotter than the rears.
