Wifeyz ride with 20x9 +35 XXR 526 Chromium Black

Well I've given the TL to the wife and had to hook it up for her because she's into that kinda thing So I wanted to get some "cheap" 20's just in case she kills some curbs and things HAHA. I did some research and couldn't believe the price of the XXR rims and LOVE the look of the 526's and yes they only weigh 26lbs in a 20x9

I got them with 235/30/20 conti DWS because they have a 50k warranty and are cool in the snow as well. DAMN GOOD TIRES FOR THE PRICE!!!

Enough BS and on to the pics. LMK your thoughts...

THESE ARE ABSOLUTELY THE MOST AGGRESSIVE OFFSET/SIZE RIM/TIRE SIZE THAT YOU CAN GO WITHOUT RUBBING AND BEING LOW!!!

Well she has a VERY SLIGHT rub in the front but only when turning and hitting a bump or driveway... CHECK THESE OUT!!!

HOPE THIS HELPS ANYBODY. ALSO ABOUT 6 MONTHS LATER AND NO ISSUES WITH THE QUALITY OF THE RIMS WHAT SO EVER...

Not normally a big fan of wheels over 19" on this car, but those do look pretty good for a budget set-up.

Haha yes they are pink. To match her hello kitty stickers on the rims. Yes these are very budget based rims but they look great/perfect size/light for 20's

I would have opted for 19's with more rubber, but they do look nice though!

dont look bad for 20's. if you plan on running it in the snow though I would switch those open ended lugs out for some closed ones. quick way to rust a stud out

looks great. Any rubbing issues at all? I want to get these as well and I am lowered on S-techs. Do you recommend the same tire size 235/30/20?

It looks real good.
Im glad you went with 20s because anything smaller looks good only when the car is lowered....imo

Hey thanks guys! Yeah it's not a bad setup at all. It never rubs at all as well unless turning full lock and going up a driveway so the size and offset is perfect. Yes I highly recommend these tire sizes and offsets as stated before as long as you don't have to many bad roads where you live. I know that my wife has hit several bumps/potholes and the rims are fine. I will try to take some more pics tonight from further away but yes I would also rock this setup

AND YES it needs the aspec lip kit bad but it's not my ride and I'd rather spend the money on my Evo 9 ;-)
