Looking good man! I love the look..just like bluelex says, lower it more, and it will look even more agressive.

I dont much recall those style of sporty mesh wheels being dubs. Usually all other designs other than that. And technically DUBs are the brand of wheel not the type.

But nonetheless i dig it

Probably the tires will rub, not the wheels.

Anyway, if they don't rub with four people in the car, they won't rub if you lower the car more. Lowering the car more just puts the car lower into its' normal suspension travel. Also, the rear wheel camber quite a bit as the car gets lower, helping with tire clearance.

"I don't wanna roll the fenders" Waah! Babies, all of you! LOL

The car looks good!

Technically 20" wheels are dubs. 20 is a dub. Want an example: let me borrow a dub, let me get a dub sack (not that I condone the purchase, distribution or posession of illegal substances) so on and so forth. When 22's came out it was then dub-dueces or duece-dueces. DUB the brand trademarked the name so the meaning is still the same only there is a company that has rights to it. Whether its mesh, spokes or chicken noodle soup, if the diameter is 20" then guess what...you have yourself dubs. I think people are now confusing DUB style and the wheel. I actually think DUB Style isn't fitting for the style due to the fact that "DUB" is being used to loosley now. Some DUB Style car's have 21", 22", 24" and 26". Oh well. Enjoy your wheels and watch out for potholes!
