Talking New Tires/Wheels for 14 F-Sport

Instead of using spacers, thinking about new set of wheels and tires.

Really like these wheels. Work Series VS-XX, White faced, polished lip.

What you think, will my ride quality suffer that much for the looks. lol

Thinking:

20 x 9 inch wheels with 245/40R20 tires for front
20 x 10 1/2 with 275/35R20 for rears

Usually I go with Silver finish or Chrome. I think the white with the polished lip looks good on a white car.

Maybe Chrome?

Not a big fan of the white, i really like silver on white. But in the end it is your car and you should do whatever makes you happy.

I think the white with polished lip looks way better than a solid silver wheel, kinda changes things up a bit. Only drawback would be you are limited when the time comes to sell the wheels.

Well work wheels are all custom. Those sizes are fine you just have to figure out what offset to run. I'm planning on 21in Work wheels this year and gonna be doing some major calculations to make sure the fitment i want is what i get. All the finishes are custom too. I'd suggest consulting a Work Wheel distributor and take a look at the 2014 catalog. They have all their sizes and finishes in there. I was just looking at the catalog yesterday.

No work dealer close to where I live. I called Work and talked to Logan. He said once I decide on a wheel I want, Give him a call back on backspacing, etc to provide to an Authorized Work Dealer.

I was going to go with 19's, Logan talked me out of that. lol

21's will look great. I just wanted a softer ride so I compromised and plan on going with 20's.

Do the new 20in step lip version. It'll have a 19in face and make your stock brakes look bigger. You'll have to decide face type too. I think the options are A R and O disk. You'll have to see what will clear the oem brakes. That's if you don't plan on going with BBK.
