Car and rims look really good!!! I like the first set of rims better imo, but the second looks set looks good too. Not to bring you down or any thing, but im a fanatic detailer and it seems you need to get those swirls out. Otherwise, love the whip!

I like your 2nd set alot better.....your drop looks really good with them. You do have alot of swirls in your paint though that could be buffed out. Other than that.....nice ride and best of luck.

Those are the 20's I was looking atl. They are one of the few out there that are 7.5" wide and a high offset (like +45 I think). That looks like a damn nice setup, props.

Comptech springs with 225/35/20 konig prophet with a 45 offset. I had to trim the plastic on the right rear fender (behind the wheel) because with 2 adults in the rear it would rub. Now I have no rubbing even on hard corners!! Works great. There first were 18 enkei's. They weren't big enough. Took them back after 1day with them.

I have a comptech drop and it would rub on the rear in HARD cornering but only on 1 side (driver) so I took a small grinder and trimmed off the plastic just behind the wheel. It was the only part that would rub, just above the mudflap. Now there is no rubbing at all.

Good Luck
