I had them in 20 inch and they look great. I had to buy 3 sets over a year though because they continued to crack. I spoke to Niche and they offered no help other than "that should not happen". I ended up removing them and getting a different set and going with 19's. The 20's look great but the rubber band tires kill them. I literally drove 5 miles and one cracked...with the rep in the car! Only way I was able to get a different set...

Hey sorry for the late reply.. I haven't been on the board for quite some time.. Anyways, after driving around with those iForged wheels and tire combination, I had to pick up a thinner set of tires for them. I had to run stretched tires so that it wouldn't rub when turning at that ride height..
