19"s or 20"s What do you guys think? Pics inside...
19"s on the front and 20"s on the rear Axis Se7ens front and driv somethings on the rear and it does not rub.. I like it but the wife does not..
they're huge... very different look...

hard to believe that those are only 1 inch in difference.
really goes to show the the effect of having the spoke end and have a lip as opposed to the 20's having the spoke go all the way to the tire

The 20s look good, however the amount of rubber is very small, you'll pull your hair out being careful driving on the road, watching out for potholes and bumps. Go for the 19s... it seems to be the ideal size for the TL...

I'd go with the 19's mainly because I like the style better than the 20's (Se7en's are clean looking...going to get some MOD Se7en's one of these days myself). Plus, depending on how the roads are in your area, you'll want a little tire on there...

Actually I like the 20's (never thought I would say that). As a side note, if you do decide on the those wheels make sure they are mounted correctly. Currently the tire on the rear car is mounted backwards.

I like the 20's. I know you said they didn't rub, but on the front I think they would when you turn. Since your car is lowered maybe a smaller tire would work. What size tire's are on the 20's? If it rubs I would go w/ the 19's.

i actually think the dubs look decent on there. personally, i don't really like the driv wheel but I'm surprised to see dubs look so well on the TL... i was set on 19's but maybe some dubs with a sick dish would be nice!?!? Can you get the se7en's in 20"?? I think that would look sweet! what drop do you have on there??

Talk about a pain when it comes to tire care/cost/maintanence, but some cars just need them.

$1,100 EVERY 12,500 miles or so...

How was the gap before the drop? I spent some good money on my last honda, shocks, coilovers, while I got the look I wanted, the ride suffered. I didn't want to touch the suspension on my new TL, but I refuse to have a big gap, I want to get it rimmed up, but want to see what you thought.
thanks,
thanks,

19's look better. Japanese car, stay with Japanese style wheels. Good choice sticking with the 19's. I'll post my pics soon. I have a White 6MT with 19" racing hart C2 3pc. Waiting for the Tein SS Coilovers to go in.
