Guys i bought my car completely stock and the first thing I did was put some 20's on immediately.

I have done no mods or fender rolling and the fit is just fine---no rubbing-scraping-or any of that.

Been about a year now.

18's performance
19's looks/performance
20's looks

Usually the bigger the wheel/tire combo, the more stress you put on your suspension and engine.

Trust me, I had 18's on my sc, then 20's and finally 19's.
On my truck i started with 20's, then 24's and now i have 22's

The right 20's look great even on a 97 kit, as far as fit, the right offset will fix that too. I ran 20's on a 97 kit and dropped hard, it looked great. More important is the style and offset, Some 20's look like crap on our cars while others just flow smooth.
