TRADED IN MY 20 INCH RIMS for 19 INCH RIMS!

I didn't like the 20s. They rubbed too much. Luckily I had a 7 day exchange on the receipt so I got these 19s instead!

What do you guys think? :hail:

Cause it is. The other day he photoshopped 20's onto the car and now hes being a smart---. lol. Those look kinda kewl, but are you sure you scaled them to 19 and not 19.5 ...
~Tim

If only stores had as easy of a exchange program as photoshop can do ...

I would not go any larger than 18s on a thirdgen. 18s look cartoonish on our cars so imagine how 20s would look. Rubbing would be a serious issue.

Yeah, I don't think someone would photoshop a car they are selling......

I think the person buying the car MIGHT notice the 20 inch rims he bought aren't on the car......

Sad part about this is my friend has a 92 Z28 with those wheels on it. They are 18's though. I have told him over and over that they look gay on his car, and he finally got it through his head.
