Default Jag on 20's and some other mods

Well I was going to wait until I finished everything but I figure this is a good halfway point. I know the rims arent for everybody but I think they look decent. Next to come is the mina gallery sport body kit and exhaust. I'll also be getting rid of most of the chrome, so I'll be getting some paint work done. It's a start.

Looks great. Check eBay for a sports package kit. I saw one factory for $700 bucks this week

Looks great. Any rubbing while turning or "cons" you've discovered with putting such a big wheel on it?

I think they rub just a little bit if you turn the wheel all the way but I've just been much more cautious when I drive so it hasent been a problem. It's definetly a much harsher ride and you have to be careful not to hit big dips in the road or you will bottom out. I would not recommend this set-up for daily driving but for how little I drive it and the fact that when I do drive it, its local so I know the good roads from the bad ones helps.

Thanks for being honest and explaining! I might have to try some 19's on my daily driver. Nevertheless, great selection on the rims!

Yea I'm sure 19's would be better for DD and it's what I originally wanted but there was just a way better selection of 20's.
