...Just my opinion.

Have you ever riden in a TL or CL with 19s"? I have 19" wheels, and I can't imagine going up to 20" There's so little rubber between the wheel and the ground... it's like you freak out everytime you see a pot hole coming... or worst... those steel plates they use to cover up some unfinished road work. Man!!! I hate those things... they're so thick and kinda have sharp edges... again, I can't imagine having wheels that big on a TL or CL . Keep in mind, or cars weren't meant to have wheels that big... There's a lot of AMG/Brabus M.B. CLKs around where I live... and those don't even have 20"s... And they're RWD. I know it's cool to be different... but having 20" wheels on a TL or CL is NOT ideal.

Yeah no kidding! Putting 20's on ca TL is asking to get bent over everytime you drive your car. You better get those things insured from road damage, cuz it will happen sooner than later.

If you go with 18's, you still atleast have some tire between your wheel and the road. Ant They are still low profile enough.

Dam, those 20's look hot on that TL. I wonder if it would look good if the car wasn't dropped? It would probably be to high off the ground if the car wasn't dropped

YUP if you got 20's, you almost have to lower the car with the body kit cuz it will (I said will) look like sh!t period :o The wheels are really to big for our cars but hey You only live once Just looking out!! If someone made a 20X8 with +47 offset or something w/ a 235-35-20 tire that would be perfect. Which ever wheel manufacture comes out with that then I think they would make a lot of $$$. Cuz someone with a CIVIC would try putting 20" on it to be dope!!! Damn I remember back in the 90's if you put 17" rims on a civic you were doing big thangs
