My 20's came in early!

[superratchaz]

Hey guys, my wheels came in today so i figured i would post some pics. These things are huge! A little bit bigger than i had thought but oh well!!

[bleek]

those are actually pretty nice looking...post some pics when you get them on

[05'GOAT!]

wow, i actually like them, i would haven never like 20" on goats, but those are clean, will be interesting to see them on the car.

[Mr. Black]

I can do without fake screws. Not a bad looking wheel. I think what is gonna kill it for me will be the super short sidewall height.

[cisco]

I think BlownChevy has those on his G8 (20") and they look awesome. Not sure about dubs on the goat though.

[Mr Bravada]

look pretty good, can't wait to see them on the goat

[SRMetallic]

I'm usually not a huge fan of the multi-spoke wheel but those do look pretty cool. I've never seen any that big on a GTO before; this will be interesting...

[camarossx1999]

too big, but i dont even like 19s. not enough sidewall at all, u will regret every pothole u hit.

[05'GOAT!]

too big, but i dont even like 19s. not enough sidewall at all, u will regret every pothole u hit.

you can fit a 2xx/30-35/19 i think 35 is the right size side wall, i think anything above 40 is meh. do not like. to much tire looks werid, like your trying to SUV tires on it. and as for wheels size, IMO.

16" = WTF are you thinking
17" = no thanks.
18" = now were talking, looks good!
19" = perfect size! looks amazing!!
20" = a little to big. but if you can make it look good.

All fixed up for you. :turbonaug

the tires i have to have for these 20s are 245/30/20s!! they cost a ton so it will be a little while before i can build my bank back up for tires!!

[04blackgmc]

there is pics around here somewhere of a blue gto i think with them in 20's

[04blackgmc]

these the same?

[HORTENSE]

yup! perfect match. thing about 20"s is that you wont be able to go wider than 8" IMO to make it look good, you gotta drop the goat as pictured above. inner fenders shaved to the seam.

can't wait to see the finished product!

[bjs06gto]

I agree!

[sprocketeer]

It's going to be extremely close in the front. What is the offset of the front wheels? Are you lowered?

[superratchaz]

they are 40mm all the way around. its not lowered yet but if the 20s sit it up too high i will have to lower it but i really dont want to

[Shockrock3]

I hope not...that belongs in the Fast and Furious, rice.

[sprocketeer]

It's going to be very close, but I hope it works out for you.

those wheels look pretty nice but
... be prepared, I think it will sit too high.
To get this look, I'm sure you'll have to lower it down a bit:

How about the front offset? How far are you dropped?

[LS1]

bud light with lime.............seriously.......

[GT-OH]

Love the wheels :thumbs:, but I think you will hate the ride. Just my .02

[Dwil]

sorry not my car, just did some searching to help visualize the look. I didn't see any other info on his setup on the cardomain page.

[Mister Skizzels]

Am I just getting old?

I remember when having 16" wheels on a car was considered HUGE!

[thedak]

weigh them ...

Absolutely agreed...personally I think 18s STILL have too much sidewall.

[sprocketeer]

We both are.

[thatperson]

they look great, it would be badass if they were actually 3-piece instead of having fake screws, lol
but good pick

what about us with 15's

30. Not 35. 35 is too big.

275/30/19 on a 9.5" wide wheel is perfect for the rear.

[thatperson]

what about us with 15's

they are bigger than 14's!!!
hahaha

[r0nd3L]

I think they will look pretty good, but you better have a good drop!

Where do 15" fit in?

http://manizone.com/gto/winter/1.jpg

[jpalamar]

too big, but i dont even like 19s. not enough sidewall at all, u will regret every pothole u hit.

+1, can you say shitty ride. First pothole with nice low profile tire = bent rim. Will those even fit with the stock suspension. Won't you rub?

[Doric]

what about us with 15's
See 16s.

[Doric]

This is a concept that I'm shocked escapes so many people.

The size of the wheel makes no difference. The size of the combination and the offset determine fitment.

[05'GOAT!]

30. Not 35. 35 is too big.

275/30/19 on a 9.5" wide wheel is perfect for the rear.

actully, ya thats true too, i was just thinking of 35's all the way around. but 30 is still a really good size.

they are bigger than 14's!!!
hahaha

LOL! exactly....

I think they will look pretty good, but you better have a good drop!

http://manizone.com/gto/winter/1.jpg

what doric said....... lol.


See the thing is, depending on WHY you have 15's/16's then ya ok i understand (Drag racing, winterwheels) ya thats cool, but if thats your perfered size for a everyday wheel. you shouldnt be driving a GTO..... sorry.

[Mr. Black]

ya thats cool, but if thats your perfered size for a everyday wheel. you shouldnt be driving a GTO..... sorry.

That's awefully bold lol. Many would say the same about 20s and hell many would question your sig.

The bottom line, different strokes for different folks as they say.

I couldn't imagine what the ride must be like on 20s with rubber bands for tires. Hell going from all seasons on stock 17s to factory 18s with craptastic RE040s my car literally transformed into a bucket of bolts. Road noise trippled and all kinds of new rattles and buzzes.

[thedak]

weight of da 20's ?

[svede1212]

i think my Mustang, Comet and Falcon all had 13"s....

this reminds of women with 6" high heels. they'll put up with anything as long as they think they look good. 20"s aren't as functional as a woman in 6" heels tho :D

[Adam4356]

like the wheel design. 20 though ? jesus. personally, too much

[LS2 KID]

Really dont like 20's on sports cars. But on the other side they are nice wheels and might look pretty good.

[VeritasGT]

Good god that's large.



that's what she said

[thekingntb]

I really don't like 20's on GTO's.. I think 19's are perfect size.... If you can make 20's work than they should look sick.... Post some pics when you get them on... Prices for tires on that must be nuts....

[weare138]

bud light with lime.............seriously.......

Dude, it goes with the DUBS!

[JohnF]

20"s aren't as functional as a woman in 6" heels tho :D

Idk man there cool need to see them on the Gto before final decision

[Hendrix-Engineering]

i might have a picture of that wheel with a 305 25 20 on my budys gto ..he opted for the 19,s...hes kinda old...lol

lol, ya but what do you usually see 16's on, ya know, mostly trucks. SUVs, so ya that is a little bold, im not making fun of anyone.. (well maybe people with 16's lol) but your right, so i shouldnt, to each their own! :D

[da_guitarist]

Whats up fellas....this is my little bro. I have a 2001 CLK55 on 19's and many people on the forums are starting to ride on 20's, so i told him he might as well go big if he's gonna waste $$ on wheels. I'm in Atlanta where the roads semi-suck, and i have 235 35's up front and 265 30's in the back. The ride is great, no wheel damage in 2 years. You have to keep about 40 psi in the tires, but here's some pics of mine with 19's and 30 and 35 series tires.

I think he'll be fine on the 245 30 20's on the smooth north GA roads. Tire life is another story, but that's his sacrifice. His car's gonna look SICK tho...can't wait to see what you're all saying when he can finally afford tires too haha

A "little ghetto", how about total ghetto.

Some 19" wheels look good, but 20" looks too big for the GTO's. Just going that one more inch is too much IMO.
