im lowered on eibach pro kit. They are 20's. there is some small gap in the rear, but there isnt any clearance in the front, it actually rubs a little when i turn right, i get that fixed.

I still feel 20s on an 2IS, especially on stock body, are too big for my taste. Yet I think they are still tasteful enough if you like bigger wheels without being donk style status. Enjoy your new wheels!

I bet he's going to sell like a month later LOL. Every Vossen owner sells their wheels within a months time.

I was wondering if I was the only one who noticed. Vossen owners sell their wheels relatively soon after purchasing them. The quality is good so here's what I think. It must be the fitment.
Someone who owns them...please let us know what the deal is. Especially since the Vossen guys are pushing the heck out of them. Every day there are multiple pic threads on a couple of my favorite forums.
Most of the models look really nice but there is little exclusivity. I see them everywhere. Even auto dealers are selling them.
So why so many people get rid of them?

I don't know about everyone else, but I'm keeping mine for a while, I didn't shell out that amount of money just for nothing.

I don't think the 20's look too small for your car. IMO, they fill the fenders nice especially with Eibach drop. I just switched from H&R springs to Eibachs and I like the ride better. The H&R had a meaner stance but I wasn't willing to trade off stance for the ride. Lol.
Looks nice, dont change anything. Here's mine with the H&R springs. I haven't taken any pics with the eibachs.
