So I have a few sets of wheels I'm running. I decided to try a 20" out from a friend because the 19's look kinda small from some angles and I can't decide if it's a little large for the coupe.
The wife thinks there too big and bling, but I kinda think they fit pretty good (but I have been looking at coupes running 20's for awhile so I might have become bias now lmao).
Anyway what's your opinion on 20's and if you are currently running them.....please post a pic for a comparison.
imo 20s look good on ipls. on stock body coupes it looks too big bc the body is not "bulgy" enough if that makes sense. go take a look at pics of 20s on a g coupe and an ipl u should see the difference. thats jus something i noticed.
actually in addition to wat i said that only applies to flat face type wheels with no lip. bc usually wheels with lips u visually lose about an inch so a 20 inch wheel with lip will look smaller than a 20 inch wheel without lip. so in ur case if the wheels pic u posted is what ur looking at it should look fine with a stock g coupe body.
@micafd3s: Its crazy because on some coupes they look huge and others they look perfect. I think it has to do with the design of the wheel and possibly the color of the car? Funny thing is that when I was stationed in Mississippi I was exposed to the world of Donks. Its a whole culture out there. You would be surprised how much suspension work they put into that setup (similar to the amount of work to slam a car) so I can appreciate that.....But I still think that is wayyyyyy over the top and dreadfully ugly. Pretty cool color wrap though
@Kroy: So the overall width and height actually decreased from the 19's I usually run. The tires are a lot thinner and stretched so the actually height of the car is still sitting at the same height as before lol.
@Blnewt: I was looking at a lot of images on google and a lot of coupes don't lower the height. I agree it makes it look a lot bigger for some reason. I am actually getting a set of coils next week so I can play with fitment a little more.
@Saywhat: That is interesting about the lip vs the full face you mentioned. I have looked at a lot of wheels and I agree with you on that. People run 20's with the lip and they tend to look a little smaller than the hub to rim spoked wheels. Also, I think the 20's sit on the IPL a lot smoother because it has lower side skirts and a little more aggressive body lines.
@JustRollin: Thanks, so I grew up slamming cars with big wheels which is why I say I am bias. My wife thinks that the hellaflush/fatlace crowd is ridiculous (which in all reality it kinda is) but that's the beauty of it. People trying to be as unique as they can in a mass produced cars lol.
@Avol3x0: Thanks for the pics. Damn sexy ride.
@Jk315: RC7/10 are my favorite from Rohanna. Those look great on you coupe. What are you lowered on?
