Thanks in advance!

I'm running razor's with 22mm offset with nitto 255/35/20 on pro-kit, no rubbing at all ( no panhard bar ) as for the ride, if the roads are bumpy, forget the oe shocks, i just put new koni's on, no road test yet !

For what it's worth, I run the 18 inch Razors for my winter setup. I am lowered with Steeda springs and run the 24mm offset 18x9's with BFG 255/45/18's and have no clearance issues. I have Tokico shocks and struts and the ride quality is better then stock.

Thanks for the responses fellas. They are very helpful. However, now isntead of buying new wheels, I may be buying a car. So the plans might have changed

Just thought I would update you guys again, the old car didn't work out and I got the razors.
Question though... Going to a 20" wheel how did you guys adjust your speedometer?

with the smaller ' low profile ' tires ,it works out the same speed ,,really no need to adjust anything ,on a 20inch wheel and tire ,the tire and wheel across the outer face should be the same size as a stock 18inch wheel and tire ,,or close to it .

I set them next to each other last night and noticed that Rick. The razor wasn't much taller. Just wondered if there was any trick

You're 18 " w/ stock tire 235-50-18 have a 27.3 " dia, the perfect match for the 20" is 265-35-20, exactly the same 27.3", i run 255-35-20 ( much cheaper price ) witch is 27" so at 60mph, I'm really driving 59.4 mph.............. no big deal at all !

Here they are fellas. Thinking about making them gunmetal, and I will definitely get it lowered soon. I'm just happy I have razors now. Loved these wheels ever since I first saw them and cars like twin turbo, starbai, Rick's and synar definitely helped get me to these haha
