20s look pretty good, as long as the car is dropped a bit

20s are too much bling and weight...i say if you plan to race then get 17/18 combo or at most 18/19 combo. dont do 19s all around IMO.

IMO

19/20 inch rims are hideous on our cars. Please don't be fooled into purchasing them. You drive an f-body, not an escalade. Vroom vroom, not bling bling!

18 inch rims with a proper drop make the perfect fit and perfect look.

20's are a little to big to me. The biggest I would go on a Camaro would be 18.
19's or 20's seem to look better on the t/a's.

BFG KDW's, they're 275 in the back and 245 on the front, should've gone wider in the rear, 295s would've been perfect I think.
