This is what WILL happen. This is a 245/35/20 tires on +45 with no drop



Is rubbing a bad thing?...YES!

Damage to the tire is bad enough. But now you're fvckin' up your fender with all that rubbing. I'll bet all the paint is gone and rust will soon set in. Goes to show that just a bit of rubbing ain't a good thing...PERIOD!

Introducing...the all new Acura TLs featuring 20 inch wheels with the MDX ground clearance package for that perfect blend of sport and off road

Competitors of this New Acura TL MDX edition are:
Suburu Outback
Volkwagen Toureag
AMC Eagle Wagon

LMAO!

On the real, I've seen TLs with 20's that look good and some that...well, you've seen the above pic. Needs a drop or something. But, to each is own. I think 13x7 Roadsters or Daytons on a Cadillac Deville look hideous, but it's the cool thing to do for some folks. I just don't get it

well lets see. it wouldnt have happened his he got 19's instead of 20's, 225 series tires instead of 245, and his offset would be fine for a 17x7.5 rim but should have been atleast +50.
