BIGGZ,

The wheels that you referenced in the link are 19". I presume the same approach to flushness and fitment would apply with the 20" wheels, with regard to the wheel widths and added spacers?

look at the siggy , I had a rare set

I think he's looking to spend a lot less than even a used set of wheels.

yeah the info i posted can apply to 20" wheels and is very helpful as to what width and offsets are do-able on 1GS's.

I8ABMR - Those are the wheels I have already picked out, now I just need to find a car. Since I first saw them I've thought they were perfect. I'm going to more than likely get mine in silver though. They look great on your ride in chrome though, yours might make me change my mind.

I looked into the TSW's, YES I AM LOOKING FOR A LESS EXPENSIVE WHEEL FOR THIS CAR....and...then I ran across the Petrol. I'm leaning toward the Petrol for two reasons. One being that the wheel's face is flatter than the face on the TSW wheel...and...the Petrol is available in a 10.5 for the rears.
