Default My Baby Got Some New Shoes

Bought some 20" wheels awhile back off another board, they were a little less than advertised condition wise, but cheap. Finally decided that I would use them and mounted up some new General Acclaim UHP 255/35/20. They look great from a short distance, I think. Tell me what you think ... I also have Steeda UltraLite

Not bad looking design but I'm not a fan of 20" wheels on our S197's. With the 35 series tires they look like wagon wheels with rubber bands. I like sidewalls which to me look more retro, not "hoodish".

Well, you DID ask what we thought...

In all fairness and equality to our beloved Nuke.....I will be adding more "tire" the next go 'round. Something bigger and more beefy.
