New Wheels = mixed emotions

All black wheels are simply too ghetto for me, just like too large a wheel. I really think it cheapens the car but that's just my 2 cents...

Wheels with no contrast, all black or chrome for that matter lack the detail that others with contrast achieve.
Thanks for the assist kgrun4...need that
Agree with the rocker stripe, the lettering looks too clustered up in the middle. And while I'm a fan of the ddb's...20's kinda loose it for me thinning out the spokes too much, but that's just me. Fills the wheel wells very nicely with that tire size.

I hope you have a handheld tuner to adjust for the just shy of 5% diameter increase which will offset your speedometer by about 3 MPH. In addition to the added rotational mass, you've just dropped your net gear ratio; both equating to a performance loss. Most folks run 35 series with 20" wheels to maintain close to the stock OD. Unfortunately with 35's, your ride quality will suffer.

Yeah it's a noticeable performance loss and gears are next on the list after I get me a bucket to ride in I already don't like driving her every day, too many miles to work, wear and tear, and I don't know if I like my black
