Exactly what I have on mine, although I think next time I will be getting 285 or bigger on the rear.

Hey Jason....it'll be part-time retro and part-time "the other theme" come spring time. Bought a brand new torque wrench over Christmas and a nice little hydraulic jack to make changing wheels as easy as changing underwear. Truth is, those Pirelli's make me ill when I push it and I got so tired of hearing about everyone's bigger wheel/tire combo's (and how great they are) that it made me sick. Besides, the credit card was at "0" for a change and we just can't have that, can we?? And that retro thing.....it's just a big fad (OK, just kidding).

No....the Magnums are gonna stay for show I think. The new tires/wheels are gonna be for the GO when I feel like it. So give the new ones a chance brother !! Me thinks they might just look OK.

Talk to ya - Mark

PS 2Toys....no such luck yet with bigger than 18's from Wheel Vintiques, they're pretty slow to respond to this kinda thing. And their current 18's won't fit our cars (yet). Too bad....deep dish 18s with the correct offset would be killer.

I know what you mean! I love that combo. I just saw a set of four 18s with Nitto rubber get away from me on ebay for 999 and that was the BUY IT NOW price. Makes me sick that I didn't have the funds at the moment or I would have snatched those suckers up!

Did you go with chrome? I am about ready to order the same setup. I chose to go 255/35/20 and 285/30/20 on BFG KDW NT tires. Post some photos of your wheels when you get them in.

What do you guys think of these wheels? Niche F-18 Chrome 20's. Let's hear it hate or love. I wish they were my cars, but they're not, I'm just considering the wheels.
