20's

Ok so heres the deal, I love my suby, I choose it over the G35 / and TL for my own reasons but I dont want a track monster or autox mobile, I just want something differnt a nice cruiser and head turner I think I am on the right path with the Legacy it is about the same size as the G tad smaller then the TL Bigger the the TSX all in all I want to bling my car nothing bling tastic but suttle classy and differnt dosent have to be dare i say chrome but polished painted or alloy with a nice polished lip, so I figured this would be the best place to ask after all the shawwweetttt 3rd and 2nd gens I have seen on here dubbin it out.
Thanks guys. Also why didnt I post on LGT.com that community isnt into such things over 18"s.

+1on the current set. They seem to fit the car nicely, and i don't think that the GT's look good with big rims, maybe cause they're a little more sport looking than a the normal legacy. I mean, hell, do what you do, but I would stick to something along the same size as the current wheels, otherwise ride quality goes out the window when you're driving on rubber bands.

I have thought about that, I also have been thinking about 19's also but would love 20's but I am logical and dont want to bounce or bend on these rough MD roads, but as we all know these are as guys our versions of woman shoes I this set up last year and it needs a revamp I love these RoJa's someting on the lines of that but they dont fit 5x100 its just so many nice wheels out there and such a limited avaliblity for the legacy damn shame.

IMO bigger than 19's would look kinda off on that car.. 18's fill the wheel wells pretty well as is. how bout some polished iforged or hre? shiny and stands out but still a little sporty

I think those ROJA's would look nice, and I'm still curious to where as you live in the MD area because those pictures are so damn familiar.

Do you have a preference on style? 5 spoke? Split spoke? Mesh?

I think these would look nice: http://dpe-wheels.com/images/s10.gif

maybe in matte black, like this: http://dpe-wheels.com/images/3animation.gif

or chrome shadow, like this: http://dpe-wheels.com/signature/cs-s15.jpg

I think anything bigger than 19 wouldn't look too great, but this 19 inch wheel looks great on LGT this AW LGT!

Do you want 20s just to say you have 20s?

Stick with 19s if you want baller status.

Oh, that reminds me - I agree with these guys that 20's will be too large for that car. I think you should stick with 19's. I think 19 inch blackout S-10's on that thing would be pretty killer. I will see if I can find some to PS.

I personally wouldn't go any larger than 18's on my car. I think they fit perfectly.

After some research 19's would be the ideal. Size 20s for shows only if i get the serious with it but doubt it, 18/19's FTW Matt always liked the SSR's and Boostjunkies car has always been hot but not my taste in style, but are nice all the same. I think I will stick with what I have for now, but that new shoe bug has bitten me until I find that right deal or that perfect pair this is it for now, But the ones Picus posted in 19's are hott I like those alot...

Yea theres nothing at all wrong with them at all, other then they are almost a year old other then that they are in fairly good condtion other then a bend and a some wintersalt rash on the clearcoat. Just the reason I needed to get new wheels

What is wrong with your current setup? It looks the best IMO.

I would go with 19s. I love mine, but on yours I would do something in the color you have already, just +1 inch.

personally, my taste in wheels has changed over the years... and again, I honestly like your setup now.... but I'm partial to multi-spokes type wheels, like OZ's "Superturismo GT's" I think they are sooooooooo sporty. I can see a set of black one's on your LGT... I think they also have these in 3pcs... but something about the simplicity of the 1pc...

seriously though 18s fit the body perfect, 19s still ok, but 20s are going to be too big
