I like it, but it would've looked a lot better with some 19's up front.

I paid $2800.00 with tires, but you can get them for about $2200. I was in a hurry.

I was gonna go with the sportline springs from Eibach but the company told me it would rub. They don't suggest the sportlines for the convertibles because they are much heavier, therefore lowering the car more than it would lower a non-vert.

We'll see what happens when I change out the struts. I didn't want to go adjustable, but in order to correct this problem maybe I will.

Not sure if Im allowed to post that link or not but heres a TA with them, not too bad I think, definately different. The guys with the CCW's and 20s always get compliments I dont see why you shouldnt.

there is a black tws6 with some 18s all around, those wheels look badass in person. Trust me, they dont scream bling anymore than any other chrome wheel. They scream wow! I dont see the big deal about 20s, everyone doesnt drag race, nor care about drag racing or turning corners at 100mph. And if 19s are ok, then so are 20s. Who cares?

Sorry all but I think that looks hot and it would really look pimp with a chrome 4 point roll bar.

That's one of the best jobs I've seen of getting a 20 to fit. Definitely unique, looks nice.

Not a big fan of the 20's, Maybe if they where dished out a little they would look better. it looks alot better than what i thought it would

I like the whole look of the car! If you really think about it? Most of the new cars are coming with big rim packages from the factory. BMW =3,5,6,7,Series M3, and M5. GM's 300M, CTS, C6, ZO6. Ford has the Mustang with 20's on them and the Saleen. Don't worry about the haters M3638. I'm getting rid of my ZO6 18's for some new shoes. Going for 19's or 19's in the front and 20's in the rear. Let the Bling begin...

My buddy has 20" foose wheels on his t/a. It looks pretty good in person, I personally think 19s are perfect on an f body. But anyway, heres a pic...
