20 inch rims on TL?
Looking for pics of 20's..really wanted 19...but came across good deal on some TSW 20's on 235-30-20 Nittos.
They have a 40 offset and 8.5 wide.
Thanks.

I am back and forth with 19-20. For the members running 20" with 35's, do you all have a roll? I don't plan on lowering and need 35's, but I keep hearing mixed things whether they will rub and if I need a roll. I was planning 245/35/19 with 8.5 45+, but if I went 20", would I need to get 225 to get the 35's to fit? 35's on 245 would give me 85.75 sidewall but if I go 225 I'm down to 78.75.
Since 20" tires are cheaper and the wheels are only $25 more each, I may be able to spend money on the roll and come out close to even, if I can get it to work without any rubbing.

Its the increased weight that makes it more sluggish. You have a lot more rolling mass that needs to get going, thus causing it to be slower

I had 20X10s on the rear (20X9's front) and I had A LOT of rubbing issues, I got some spacers which kinda helped but I still could not have more than 1 person riding in my back seat or I would rub....my MPG's also went wayy down to the 16-18 mpg range....oh yeah and that was highway mpg... so I went back to stockies....

I think if you'd gone with an actual rubber band you'd have a thicker sidewall haha.

All of your cars look great on 20s but ill stick to the 17-18s with a thicker sidewall, in Oregon we have a lot of potholes plus in my opinion the ride isnt quite so harsh with thicker sidewalls

A spacer would be needed or call TSW direct to verify fitment.
That is what held me up from buying a TSW rim initially.
