20" In The Back May Look Ok, Do Not Put Them In The Front, Unless You Want To Be Gay...haha. No But Seriously, I Have 19" All The Way, Which Is The Biggest I Would Go. I Think If U Really Want Big Rims, I Would Go 20"s In The Back, And 19" In The Front. If "i" Were You, I Would Just Do 18" Front, 19" Back.

Car is stock except for minor mods and has had no changes except for the wheels between times at the track.

only rims that look fantastic in 20s are CCW's or the Iforged or whatever was showed, and on the rear. IMO

I can't tell what they are, but they look OK.

Here's my car on 19's.





Looks great to me. 20's may be pushing it, but maybe not.

BTW, these are 295/30/19's which are about 26" tall.

Do they look like 20's? I didn't think so. If they do, it's probably due to the small looking brakes.

20 inch wheels belong on SUV's, not F-body's.

To me it seems that 20" looks better when you also have a body kit on, otherwise it's looks like FUBAR!

Are we starting this debate again? Holy ****. You are old bro, Get over it. Smaller rims are out..... In with the new. Embrace it or you will hate a lot of cars you see at car shows or even most newer vehicles dont roll around with 17" anymore. You will get over it. Hope Fully.
