wheel blooper of the fugg'n year!!! ok so..the other day i won what I thought was a pair of BRAND NEW 18"x10" TTII's
Well...listen to this...turns out I got an even better deal than I thought, by way of this guys brain fart blooper...
Turns out they weren't 18's afterall..they were freakin 20's haha
20" by 10"
Just wanted to share...anyone intersted in some BRAND NEW IN BOX 20"x10" TTII"S with a 7.25 backspace and a chevy bolt pattern? would look great on a truck or hot rod
by the way, i immediately called the guy to make sure he didnt send me the wrong rims...i said that he thought they were 18's...i said no dude, there is a 20"x10" engraved by American Racing inside the rim...he said it was his fault and his loss...

Guy I worked with had a TA that was lowered and he put 20's on it front and rear. I don't know if he had any issues or not with them. He never told me and he quit not long after he got them on. Is it really that hard to find a 20" tire that's close to stock diameter? If the backspacing is correct the tire size should be the only issue. Even with 10" wide 18's you're gonna have to roll the fender lip so what's the big deal? I thought you were just one of those 20" wheel haters.

nice looking wheels and congrats on the luck. but those wheels do not look new, check out the wear inside the holes for the lugs, apparent wear from a lugnut if you ask me. but still they look new, just maybe fairly new and well taken care of. but i say they have definately been mounted on a car at some point.
