One I have 15's for mine they are the drag sets.
I have seen a few car with twenties. One of them happens to be the a car for Air Ride Tech. It was orange and black two tone.

I can't find it anywhere on the web for a pic, but it was in a magizine for air ride. It was orange on top and black on the bottom. Tubbed and teh windshield was chopped.

I'm sure some of you guys remember crack head matt, and that he had 20" HREs on his car. I remember everyone having a hardon over him and his wheels. This was at least 4-5 years ago too, when 18s weren't even popular on a fbody.

Just goes to show you that if you're well known, it's cool. But if not, well it's gay.

Basically like everyone calling rice when civics use different badging on their cars. But, it's totally fine to be driving around with CORVETTE wheels on a fbody.

I like the best comment, that you would only put 20s on your car if they were a specific brand. Why is that? Wow, open your eyes and be a little more open minded.

Some 20s look good and some don't.

There is a local car here that has Vellano 3 peice wheels, 20x12.5s in the back (mini tubbed) with a 345/25-20.

It looks plain sick! But other wheels, like the black car pictured on page 1 with the body kit and t/a scoops, look absolutely horrible.

EXACTLY! Just like some 17-18-19s look great and some don't. A nice looking purpose built wheel, ie. CCW, IForged etc will always look better on our cars versus fat chromed out playa rims.
