Got some new 20's

Just got some TSW Jarama's 20x8.5 in the front and 20x10 in the rear. 40 offset all around and no rubbing. I have 245/30/20 on the front and 255/30/20 on the rear. I'm getting the cross drilled and slotted rotors put in next week. I love the way it looks. Let me know what you think. I have to get some better pics but this should do for now.

Why do you have a Type-S license plate frame? Just wondering.

When I bought the car, it was on there and I just never took it off.

Definitely changing the sidemarkers but not sure on the taillights. I kinda like the all red tails. On the fence right now about those.

didn't think that 20's look good on a tl but this is very very nice. I like it alot and the lippage in the rear is awesome.

Thanks for the input. I think the front needs to come down just a little bit more and I'll be set.

Usually not a big fan of 20's, but that looks pretty good. Fits the look of the car.

Wheels look good but do not go around a corner too fast.

The rims are almost touching the ground!

I've got the Eibach Pro Kit which is 1" all around. It's a pretty good height for the 20's but I think I might want it a little lower in the front.

Ed....First, your wheels look great. I've always thought that 20's are too big on a TL. But yours really look nice-especially on a NBP TL.

Second, I agree with Trojan (above). See your headlights are cleared and your wheels now give your TL a black/chrome look. The red side markers and tails are breaking up your color scheme! The Type S tails would carry your look and color scheme from the headlights to the taillights.

Just a thought........
