I have 45's on my 18's and I'm scared to hit potholes...then again potholes in Ohio are craters to everyone that not used to them.

I have to honestly say (with performance set aside) 20" wheels aren't bad, in fact, they look really good on the 04+ cars. You have more space in the wheel wells than us 97-03 owners and a 20" wheel fills it up really nicely. However they're very heavy, will have a huge impact on your gas mileage (I average 3-4 MPG's LESS when I'm running my 18" wheels compared to my stock 16's), and will shorten the life of your transmission.

However it's your car, so do what you want to it.

^ Oh yeah, I forgot that some people don't know what potholes are. Around this neck of the woods.. if the corner hitting the hole doesn't dip at least 3 or 4 inches, it's not a pothole, and the county deems it not worth repairing.

true...but in theory, if you got big enough rims it would go over the whole.

-note to self- (get bigger rims to avoid potholes)
(rims about 32" in size could clear a pothole about 6 inches wide, and wouldnt matter on depth because it wouldnt fall in...)


BRILLIANT!!!!

You couldn't pay me enough money to put huge tires on a Camaro or something. Might as well be a 3rd or 4th Gen F-Body and you can get your mullet with it too....


Anyway, wheels have nothing to do with nationality and race.. living in Phoenix you see horrible rims all day long on every type of car. And it comes from every race.. White, black, Mexican, Asian... EVERYONE has their moments of stupidity.. lol.

I clearly dont understand why ya'll have to critisize so much, if u dont like big rims then so f*c*in what!! who gives a shit about your opinion?? exactly no f*c*in body!! U spend your money however the kcuf u want to, it amazes me that people really think someone f*c*in cares about their hating ass opinions, get a f*c*in life and do your own thing, and stop fixing your cars up for someone elses satisfaction.

-- Tue Mar 02, 2010 9:37 pm --



this is real kcuf up for u to say, im not gonna say too much about it, but i swear if i ever saw u in person i would punch u in the mouth and then piss on your piece of shit car

-- Tue Mar 02, 2010 9:39 pm --



people act real tough behind their little keyboards and think its okay to say whatever they want, but things always seem to catch up to those who hide

-- Tue Mar 02, 2010 9:43 pm --

And besides my car isnt a race car, if i wanted a race car, then i would have bought a GXP. i only bought the car bcuz i wanted to experiment on it, and i actually like how it turned out. So i did it for myself not for anyone else. so for all ya'll who take this shit soooo serious, its only a car dude, who cares

Hiding behind a keyboard? Aren't we all then?...including u? This is a interent forum buddy.

Why have more money than brains? Cuz RACE CAR

Perhaps not all of us on here like big/huge wheels and therefore express our opinions against then, but we have also laid out many true facts as to why not to have big/huge wheels such as extra stress on the trans, discrease in MPG, increase in stopping distance due to extra rotational mass, as well as many others. So yes people can do whatever the heck they want to do with thier cars, but if someone walked up to me and said "You should run your car without any motor oil" I would obivously tell that person to go screw themselves, but they themselves could go ahead and do it to thier own car if they so pleased. Now, I'm sure you're thinking as a counter argument, well everyone knows that running your engine without oil will obviously ruin it, well, the same concept applies to wheels. We have listed the facts and detriments that are involved with driving these cars with huge wheels, but we can't tell you what to do or not to do, we can only guide you and express our opinions and knowledge and if you read that as "us hiding behind our keyboards" on a internet forum, then I'm sorry but you obviously miss the point of being a member of a forum in the first place.

I hide behind a keyboard on this forum, but IRL, I tell people their cars look stupid all the time, if they want to fight, lets roll.. as soon as someone acts tough, and I don't back down, they usually show their bluff anyway.

I build my car the way it suits me also.. BUT I also don't want every person I drive by in town laughing at me. I have a huge stereo in my car.. easily the loudest in my town, hands down.. but does anyone but me and my neighbors know it? F*ck no... I don't need people thinking I'm some stupid young punk that wastes his "mommy and daddys" money, or a "drug dealer", which 90% of people would be saying.

If you wanted a sedan to put large wheels on, you should have bought a Chrysler 300, or Dodge Charger.. and done it to one of them. They can be had for less than what I paid for my GP.. and they look super nice with big wheels.

Agreed. A buddy of mine has a SRT8 300C with 22" black viper replicas and it looks tits. They actually fit nice and do not look like a 4x4.
