I'm really likin' these.... I just gotta figure out how to sell the wheels/tires I have, then get the new wheels quickly, cause I am driving the car!
I have also heard the 20's may be hurting my "get-up-and-go" speed???? anyone know about this? I would'nt have thought wheel size would affect performance?

--------Torque Thrust M---------------Torque Thrust II---------------------200S------------
As for hurting performance...the farther the rotating mass is from the axle centerline, the more torque it takes to turn it. So in a way, it's robbing torque that would otherwise be converted into thrust to move your car forward. For the same reason, it works your brakes harder.
Here's a red car with the 200s:

I personally love the split 5 stars on the birds and you can pull off 19's and still lower the car and they don't look gangster at all. I get mass compliments on my wheels and they are 19's
