My New 20's

[F6 RAPID]

Good stuff mate.

Just FYI, I have the same size wheels and have 245/30-20's on the front and 275/35-20's on the rear. The rears equate to about 3% overdriven now so it is a little taller geared and the speedo is a little out - just have to remember that when driving.

Mate can you post some better pics??

20's cost $225 to get sent over to Perth, phark that hahaha. For anyone who cares the 19's are $1999 + freight.

I'll shoot them an email for more info

What do you think???????

They look nice.

I take it you got nangcrap rubber?

As for tyre width.

You should have put 245 on the 8.5's and 265 on the 9.5's

Your current tyre width are for rims of 7 - 7.5inch (front) and 8 - 8.5 inch (rear)

Dont corner to hard as you will most likely chew up the side of your rim.. lol

Ive been using Nangcraps for a while and I seem to chew them up on the ontsice and inside edges. Is this pretty normal for them?

[Ralph Wiggum]

If your chewing out the outside and inside edges it sounds like that maybe a bit low on pressure...? what pressure are you running..?

I was running about 36psi. Knowing that these symptoms are caused from low pressure I now run 44psi. It is very rough and I will probably buy different tyres next time. Im looking at firestone tyres and not sure if they are any good.

I like the 20s though. They look the $hit!

that's exactly what im putting on next tyre change, just one question,how do you clear the top bolt with 245's up front

(Will be trying the rears on the front for clearence tomorrow)

These rims are 40p offset so that helps a little too I guess

one problem with these is that the hub nut cover sticks out a bit on the fronts making it impossible to put the centre cap on. May have to fit a spacer and modify the the hub nut cap a little

Where are the pics I wanna see more

[stedz101]

ok ok here they are, I fixed the centre cap problem today.

Solution: Remove the hub nut dust cap and run a super fine bead of silastic on the back edge of the centre cap and snap into place(silastic is to seal out dust)

I put some plastacine on the hub bolt when test fitting cap for clearence and found there was 2mm gap (chearing)

The only problem with the silastic is you have to redo it everytime you balance your rims

Itwas raining today sothe car and wheels are dirty(typical black paint)

And yes I know it badly needs some brakes!!!!!

very nice mate

what wheels were they again?
