I saw a Trans Am with a set of BBS RS II wheels on some german motorsport site and thought they were killer. He had 20*9 front and 20*10 out back. He used 285/40YR-20s tire up front (not sure about the rear tires) Car looked awesome. Tire height is only 1.2" higher than stock, but throw on 1" lowering coils and you'd lose that ugly fender gap while still maintaining ample ground clearance. The wheels are 3 piece forged and weigh only 28 pounds apiece (I think). Anyway, at $650 per wheel and 350 per tire (for Pirellis) that comes out to be $4000 for rolling stock...A high price to pay, but bigger wheels are coming into style on the sport scene now. Heck, BMW M3s ship with an optional 19" wheel and tire package. Anyway...check the wheels out and lets discuss the pros and cons of 20" performance wheels (excluding any bent rim arguments - due to roadcourse/weekend cruise use only).

pics?

ugh 20 inches on fbodys will never look good to me 18 is the right number

20 is fricking huge on our cars.

LOL BLING BLING!!!!!

BBBBBAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA.........

hehe..

I agree with Mac, 20 is too big. So far from cars I've seen, 18's are the biggest that look good.

Here is an 80's camaro with 20's..........

19's are the biggest i would go.....

ugly!

20's are just to big. I think mac has the right idea, 18's are the way to go. But for us poor guys, 16's will suit me just fine!!!

Cons
Your not driving a truck
ridiculously expensive
expensive tires
forget about lowering your car
Target for thieves
As mac suggested they are too big for camaros.......
rubbing issues
can't help performence....
they raise your car

Pros
Girls LOVE them......

I rekon 20 is too big but there is one big bonus, you'd save money on tyre black!!!!

20 is kind of ridiculous.... i mean if you really want tires that big just go out and buy a truck... ugly on one of our cars.

girls just love something shiny that looks big, the lift that 20's put on our cars is comical, not to mention the ride.......... leave it for the larger size vehicles.

i'm leaving now to go put 22's on my dodge shadow.

Those 19s look rediculous, 20s would look worse.


I want the ones where you stop and keep spinning.

Mark those are 20's

"Nickname lottery cause i don't spendin, when the wheels stop the chrome keep spinnin like a sick moon walk........"

Ok, here is a link to some pics. When I used to hear about 20s I had the same thoughts as many of you share: "they look ugly", "they're too big", "buy 18s instead". Once I saw this car, however, I fell in love with the idea of these rims on my car. Words cannot do the same justice as pictures.

P.S. - Please do not presume that you can photoshop an accurate representation of what 20's would look like on a car - the joke is reeeal old and is beggining to become irritating (don't think I am alone here)

the pics dont work even when i copy the address in the address bar. save them and then attach them


PS: people can do a lot with photoshop

no worky worky

save the pics and attach them

Christ, that is horrible looking. I hate when the fender cuts off the top of the wheel. 18s is the max I'd do, but I'd be plenty happy with 17s.

Here we go....

Here are the pics 4 you guys that cant see them

2

What ever dude....

Not as bad as I originally thought.

3

"Bling Everlasting"...

However, the rest of the car looks good. There, not a complete flame

Peace,

K

PS Just noticed the mufflers in the carwash pic. Slick.

the link worked for me, i dont think they realy look that bad. looks like the car is setting kinda high to me tho

Not bling bling at all fellas. Those are some nice rims and the drop makes it all go together. I couldn't spend that much on rolling stock, but he sure can and it looks nice.

not bad

did you guys see the picure of that engine on a stand???? I don't care how bling bling you think he is....that's a badass car.

I like those wheels, BUT looks like they're about to swallow the car.

Those look dumb as hell. Almost like a non shiney fart pipe.

Im still not a beliver ugly as sin WAY too big

I can't read that..
but, does that say.. 9.0 liter!?!?

he was either drunk as hell when he wrote that, or doesn't speak english.

ridiculous.

to each his own I guess.

i don't really like the looks of 20" rims, they seem too big. but i guess he needs them since his brake discs are 14" big

9 Liter, damn, how many cubic inches is that? I want a big block in my car!!!

9ltrs = 549ci.

Those 20's don't look that out of place on the Trans Am because the wheels have a face mounted design, which makes the rim looks a bit smaller than it actually is compared to a deep dish 20" wheel which look like 21s. If I had the money, I would throw on some 19s at the largest.

Yea, those are wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy to big

18s are big enough for our cars. Now this is a car 20s look good on.

i like the 20s! i wouldn't put more than 18's on my formula, but i do like the way that car looks. don't be affraid to admit it, they might be 20's, but not crack dealer "dubz" these are pure performance

Did anyone else notice the wilwood calipers? This dude has some money, those wheels retail for ~$700-$800 each...

Oh man I saw a truck with those the other day. I bet those cause wrecks. People looking at them triping out and dont see the car infont of them before the hit it. Strange looking though. I'll see if I can find a web site wth them.

>does anyone know what they are called?
