Default My car fitted with 20" DCR Laguna Seca *Lots of PICS*

Test fitted some DCR Laguna Secas yesterday at a friend's place. Looks pretty good with 20's, don't you think? He's selling them for a good price but I don't know if I should give up my Scaras.

Wheel specs are 20x9 +34 and 20x11 +43 245/35/20 Sumitomo HTR ZII 285/30/20 Falken FK452. They fit fine with minor fender mods and decent drop.

Compared to the Scaras.













The 20's really clear the wheel gap nicely compared to my 19's. They fit very flush too.

I told you 20s look good. I am starting to have doubts about installing my 19s.

DCR's look better in my opinion. really really executive look. i saw these wheels in the classifieds. pretty good deal. u have to shave your rear fenders and fronts, or just rear?

the fitment is damn near perfect. beautiful.

I gotta agree..the DCR looks awesome on your car. This is the first time i've seen them on a 2nd GS.

The front and rear had to be shaved, not a big deal. I really like my wheels so I hope these go on a 2GS.

looks pretty good, and i like the stance better with the 20's, but i'd have to say the scaras look better...

if you get air suspension, i'd say keep the scaras

I think changing the headlights back to chrome would make it look better also...

The sizing of the DCR's is nice, not feeling the face though, maybe if you had a kit....

I'm working on the headlights right now. I've been lagging on that. Gotta have patience.

Both wheels look great. While I love the Scaras, the only thing I don't like about them is the center cap.

i really like john's wheels on his LS. they also look good on your car as well.
i think you'd have to get a full kit to really complete it tho.

I normally do not comment on threads like this as I am usually more mechanics and details job..

I like the 20's.. those are the first ones.
