949Banker · 09-03-2012, 03:34 PM

my wife is getting ready for the upcoming snow with some blizzaks this coming october. since she's getting tires, she'll also be getting wheels too. which of the 3 wheel styles should she get and why?

1. esm wheels 004 20x10 et 20 hub bore 74.1 all around or et 40 redrilled from 72.6 to 74.1 all around in gun metal with polished lips?

2. esm wheels 004 20x10 et 20 hub bore 74.1 all around or et 40 redrilled from 72.6 to 74.1 all around in hyper silver centers with polished lips?

3. vmr wheels vb3 20x10 et 35 redrilled from 72.6 to 74.1 all around in hyper silver?

4. vmr wheels vb3 20x10 et 35 redrilled from 72.6 to 74.1 all around in matte black?

And LASTLY, is ET20 too aggressive of an offset for this chassis?

no 4 is sweet... option 3 would be my 2nd choice.

Me too, 4 really suits the space grey(?), three next best.

I like 3

4 gives it a more sports feel, if that's what you are after.

#4 FTW

#3 then #4. Ditch the first 2!

Btw, what did you use to create the pics?? It's a great representation....

I personally like #4, but you pick what you like. At the end of the day it's your car and you opinion matters the most. They are all nice but i'd prefer #4 overall.
