Yup

Probably because of the 20's stuffed back there.

The wheels look nice, just looks like the rears stick out way too much, probably the tire, 325 is pretty wide.

You are the man. Thanks for doing that for me. I have been trying to picture what she would look like lowered. This just gives me more motivation to get it done ASAP. I can't believe how the stance of a car can totally change how it looks.

Suprisingly, not as much as I thought I was going to have to. And no, my fenders aren't rolled, but may need to be once I lower it. I've only got the car out once since I've put them on, but no rubbing at all.

The rear wheels are flush with the fender and don't stick out any past the fender.

i think they will look great once you get the drop and right height , some will bash any 20 inch rim but they look killer on there

Thanks BOBS99SS. I bought these used and got a killer deal on them, so a 20 inch wheel isn't necessarily what I would have ordered new, but for the deal I got, I couldn't pass it up. I'm just glad to finally have a nice set of wheels that I love that have a nice lip to them.

Thanks. I love these wheels. I can't wait to get her lowered. It's going to totally change the whole look of the car.

Have to admit, and I hate 20's, but with the lowered photo adjustment it looks pretty good.

Thanks lees02WS6. I wouldn't have gone with 20's either if I would have bought them new, but for the deal I got, couldn't pass them up and I really like the way they look on the car. Now once I get heads/cam/intake, getting them to hook will be tricky.

Ya goodluck getting 20s to hook. I like them much better than the Fikse you had on the car. I would have a hard time going with anything bigger than 18s myself. If you dont mind me asking what kind of deal did you get on them? As stated it will look better once lowered..

Lowering it will give you problems with those 20's but will look nasty when its done

That's a good deal for 19"-20" 505a's good luck polishing those bad boys up and don't forget to seal them with a good sealer. Mothers Billitt works best on your wheels.
