20's don't look too bad on big-wheel pick-up trucks. Otherwise, I can't stand them. Even 19's bother me to no end lol. 17 is as big as I'll ever go!!!

Anyhow I have to agree with most everyone here though... you look like you're going for the "bling bling" idea mixed with a "60-year old lawyer" idea... hehe. If that's what you're looking for, raise the car a couple more inches and get yourself a gold chain for your neck or some such.

I roll on 20's and despite most dont like them, I like mine. Drop your car and it will help a lot.

bigger lip or not, those chromes give off a sort of low rent look =/.

20's are fine on a long-bodied car liek the SC, especially with an aero kit.

the difference is the drop and quality wheels. no one can argue having quality wheels (i used to have rezax on my other car. loved 'em)

please drop your car; the bigger the wheel, the more it needs a drop.

Keep the rims, they look great. But you do need to lower it, and then after that the only other thing you need to do in order to make it real rock out is add a matching dent to the other side

Admittedly, I've seen a few 19/20s around that I like

Maybe dropping it as everyone says would do the trick, I dunno
