LOL, I just got the center caps back for them yesterday. I had them painted with my grille an wings west spoiler. Weather has been crappy and I have been super busy with school. Wednesday it is supposed to be nice so I will likely be putting them on then. Still need tires. I'm thinking 235/35/R20.

i would recommend going with 245/35 (little rubbing) or 245/30.
Good call on the 245/30. I plugged the numbers in this (http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp). I like the overall size of the 245/30 much more. I will just have to be careful with such a small sidewall. lol. Thanks

not sure how the roads are where you're located, but xford seems to run that size with no issues.
I ran 245/35 on my sentas, and although rubbing was minimal, it was annoying at times. So if i had to do it again i probably would go with 245/30 eventho the roads around me are sh!t.

I would not go with a 30 series side wall. That's WAY to risky! Stick with the 235/35's or 245/35's.

i currently have 245/35ZR20's and there is no rubbing at all. but my car is not lowered YET! (not sure if yours is) tires fit nicely and look good.
Tires
I got the tires put on today and Wednesday, I will put them on the car. I want to touch-up the calipers and clean in the wheel wells so I have to wait till I have a lot of time on Wednseday. I went with 245/35R20 because they were a lot cheaper and the sidewall on the 30s was dangerously small. I attached a pic, it is crappy but you kinda get the idea of what they will be like on the car.

I run the same size wheel/tire combo and have for 5 years. Save yourself some frustration(ever so slight wheel shake) and put a camber kit in now and go get it aligned.
It is worth the money. Bought mine through Napa.

I had the car lowered about two weeks ago and after they aligned it, the front camber sits at (Right) -0.54 and (Left) -0.19. Both are within specs. The rear is also within sepcs at -1.58/-1.68 but is non-adjustable. I will see if I have wheel shake after I put the wheels on and if so, I will look into the front camber kit.
BLAH, BLAH, BLAh..................... Just get them on and get pictures already......... I REALLY want to see them on......... Just put them on and take a picture......... PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
....... I will give you a cookie.

I'm with everyone else. PICS PLEASE!!!!
It is an 06 so it is color matched. I just installed a McLaren grille so it will be totally blacked out except for the chrome strip in the lower grille, the emblems, and the exhaust tips.
