2012 SVTPP wheels or Black RTRs???

Currently have black RTRs on my Black 2012 GTCS, but a local sale of some relatively brand new 2012 SVT PP wheels popped up. They are more of a matte gray and I was looking for the black look but they are sweet wheels and they are wider.....

What do you guys/girls think. Pros and cons of each?!?

I'd go for the SVTPP wheels cause they are wider and look bad a**.

Looks sweet! 20s in rear and 19s up front?

How'd that set up work with your lowering springs?

It fits perfect, no wheel gap, no rubbing. I can tell a huge difference from the toyo tires, these pick up all road sand and throw it all over the underside of the car. Yes 20 rear 19 front

I hate that sound when u drive on a road with some dirt. You hear it underneath.

I just found out they are 20x9.5 in the back don't know why they wouldn't do 10s. I always thought they were. O well I guess it makes no sense to switch now, that was a huge + for me.

For some reason, they seem to pick up stuff worse when its cold/cool than when its hot outside. I figured it would be worse this summer, but it was nowhere near as bad as when its cold out.

Those SVTPP wheels look really good to me, and not as common as the RTR or similar. For some reason, the staggered diameter seems to really work on these cars. With the typical setup the rear wheels always look a bit undersized relative to the front, at least to me.

If I found a set of the SVTPP's at a good price I'd definitely pick them up.
