Default CCW 505a's on, 19/20's...

I know that 20's are a bit of a controversy on here, but I was able to pick these up from a fellow member for a great deal. Picked them up yesterday, put them on this morning. Went for a quick drive, and believe it or not, I didn't hear any rubbing. I will drive it for about a week, pull them off, and assess. If I see any bad spots, I will get out the BFH and go to town. 19x10's, 20x11's, 325's out back. On to the pics!

20s are too big IMO, but looks good regardless.

I figure if you do 20's, they better be the best possible wheel...which these are. I think the 19's in the front help somewhat.

At your power level 20s are fine but if you have a cam or H/C its retarded. Looks good though.

That's the issue the previous owner had...too much power, not enough tire.

Matt, I'm glad you like them. I wanted to get on here to see if you posted the pics you text me, and I have to say, they look even better than they did on my phone. With your car sporting a lowered stance, it really makes these wheels look even better than they did on my car.

Thanks Nate for great deal and meeting us half way. Drove it for a bit longer and it looks like I am going to have to address the fender lip a bit...I'm noticing some rubbing on right/left turns at speed. If that's all that I have to deal with then I'm doing pretty well!

I was wondering how you were getting away without rolling the fenders. My 17x11 and 315s rubbed a bit on the lip and their F-body offsets.

Looks damn good. I saw that is a very worthy upgrade over the TT2's.

I would have had that issue too if my car would have been lowered at all, but honestly, it looks like the rear wheels/tires tuck in better on yours than they did on mine. There are at least 3 guys on here that rent out the fender roller tool. Hell, you may know someone local that has one too. I've heard it's very easy to do with the right tool.

Yea, I am going to have to research it a bit. I looked last night and the spot that is rubbing is soooo small, I am going to try and clearance that spot with what I have lying around, and see if that makes the difference.

Thanks. I have a buddy that is a pro photographer, we are going to get together and get some pics taken. High hopes for great results.
