Re: 20 inch crome IROC' wheels pics please

20"s can be done, but it looks like crap in my humble opinion.

I'd stick with 18"s if you can

Re: 20 inch crome IROC' wheels pics please

I believe the absolute largest wheel you can fit is a 19" without rubbing. According to the tire size calculator at 1010tire, a 20" with a 285/25/20 tire on it is just .02 inches smaller in diameter than a stock 16" with a 245/50/16 tire.

But, for any chance at performance, I must ask why? Adding that much unsprung weight is not a good thing.

Edit: I totally agree with wgripp as well. I dislike dubs. Period. Any vehicle, any time.

Re: 20 inch crome IROC' wheels pics please

20" Iroc's usually look badass IMO. Depends on the car. Most people here like their cars to appear stock and I think are most concerned with performance of everything. I like a balance of both. These Camaros are not mine just pics I have, I have 18"s on my bird. It's whatever you think looks the best and have the money for...and other factors such as, road conditions in your area, whether you daily drive it or not..etc

Blue - 20"s
Maroon - 17"s
Red - 18"s

Re: 20 inch crome IROC' wheels pics please

I'm running 20's in the back and 18's up front. Would have been better if I could have gotten 19's for the front, but they are unvailable. Just depends what look your going for. The car should be going in for air ride within 2-3 weeks....to even out the "rake"

Re: 20 inch crome IROC' wheels pics please

20"s look good on certain cars..I think 18"s would probably be best for your car...but if you're gettin a good deal on the twinkies, I'd just go ahead and get 'em. And I think the 17"s are too small...although Maroon88Iroc's still looks sweet

preciate it. i actually wanted 18's when i got these but went with the 17's. but im glad i did they fit the look of the car alot better. and i wanted it to look stockish on the outside with some updates and bling. but i think i pulled off a clean factory look.

Re: 20 inch crome IROC' wheels pics please

Sickness, how often do you drive your car? I assume it is not a DD right?

Looks amazing by the way. I think I am friends with you on facebook.

So you deciding to go air ride. I was trying to back when I was building my car's suspention. But there were no kits yet and custom was in the double digits. How do you think something like that would be on a DD?

How many miles you put on her a year?

I am just curious cuz I recently started driving my car as a DD and its pretty crazy tooling around town and trips to 7/11 with 400 HP and a all.
