Angry Wheels

Can I put 20's on my is300 2001 with 245/35/20 tires. I don't want to make any modifications to the wheel well. I have had dealers say yes and no. Who can help

Frustrated

without serious fenders rolling and shaving, forget about 20s. it's just too big

Default 19's

19's are the NEW 20's! Seriously though, 19 is as large as you can go on an IS unless you remove the fenders. Anything can fit with a hacksaw and a blow torch though.

Thanks every one for giving me advice on the 20's. I gues 18's will have to do. I'm getting the Gianelle Opal 6's. What size tire should I go with for the best look?

I'd recommend you look into other brands....those are crappy wheels (the design isn't horrible though)...

And how can you go from wanting 20's to 18's?? Go with 19's, they look great on the IS...

THE GIANELLE'S ARE a crappy brand????? I thought they were legit. I haven't been able to find anything else tht would look good (in my opinion) that every one else does nt have. The 6 opal Gianelle's are deep dish and they are different. If not them, can some one give me suggestions(and remember the brother's like the chrome for da bling)
