sharp, but do you want to sacrifice ride? Personally, i like 18's or 19's on an LS. Just my opinion.

Looks really nice, the ride is not that bad with 20s... If you swiched from 16s (although I do think that your car had 17s) then it would be really noticable.

Hey I am looking to buy a set of those very soon. Let me know if you want to sell them, I would offer a good price or if you want the factory chrome 17's and cash that would work too.

Let me know

What does $3900 canadian work out to in US dollars? Also are those rims the speedsters or a different style?

Not doubting you, just wanted to know if they were the speedsters or not. I would have to have them shipped. You decide what you want for them and let me know. They are the rims I want. Lets see if we can make a deal.

I'm confused how some say the ride is so bad on 20s, I was surprized when I had mine on how little the difference was. Maybe its the tire manufacturer, mine are the Nitto 555s. Anybody else agree the 555s seem to ride pretty darn good. Maybe some of the other tire companies suck.

I have the same wheels as he does...I am running the Nitto NT555 non-lowered and my ride is fine, no rubbing, I have the sport suspension as well. I must say my old 20's with nankang tires rode completely different. I think the tires really make the difference. But maybe it's just me...

I like the speedsters too, my Lussos are going on soon, winters almost done.

WELL maybe im not use to it. with the stock 17 on the car i got a smooth ride,but the 20's just dont have any side wall like the 17's
could that be it?
thanks

It has alot to do with it, the ride is definately harder than the 17s, but I don't think its bad and its not as bad as I was expecting. These are my first 20s and 35 series tires. When I went from my stock 16s to 18s on my Mark the ride difference was more dramatic.

i got Falken tires (245/35's) and the ride is only rough when you are braking hard... when you got them nice rims on your car no matter what size, its gonna make you drive slower and more careful, so any upgrade in wheels is going to effect the ride...

very true. i got 245/35/20 Wanli's and they feel fine but a little rough on hard brakes and bumps. otherwise a very smooth ride.
