i have the same wheels, though staggered. look great! definitely need a drop though. be carefull, i wish i had not bought them now given how soft the wheels are. while i was doing my research, this was one of the negative in regards to the lexani brand. i figured since i was used to driving on big wheels, everything would be fine. not the case. bought the wheels in june and i already have at least one out of round due to potholes. given the profile needed to stuff 20's on our car, you have to be very carefull driving. keep up the good work!

Nice situation you got going on over there. That BLK GS is so hard. Very nicely done. These things really need to come stock with 20's......Yeah I'm kinda over this Winter/Snow this year too.

As far as driving I feel a pretty big difference especially around cornering. Feels like the car handles much better. Believe it or not, with the way my stock run flats were, these seem to drive better. A tiny more harsh on potholes but overall driving feels much sturdier and smoother
