questions

if i put 20 inch rims on my 98 cl will it rub wen i turn? will it fit? and i am going to install an in dash dvd player...should it be a double din 6.5 or 7 inch? i dont want to cut any part of the center console. i want a direct fit. or am i better off with a flip down in dash?

a double din dvd player will fit but you'll need to make your own custom double din mounting bracket, as for 20's why? 18's is the biggest I'd go on a CL. 20's have been done, though I'm not a fan of that look

Some people like 20's because they want it to feel like they are riding on the rim itself.

20 is too big. 19 is pushing it, 18 is fine.

why would you do 20's? ick. 18's is the nicest look... 19's if you've got an amazing wheel (I remember liking 1 setup w/19's and that was a guy in seattle from a couple years ago... cant remember his name of the top of my head..)
