About a month ago I picked up a wagon and am almost done with the tinkering. I saw another user post images of black CI-Rs on his white wagon, but I thought you folks might like to see the other color option, Platinum Silver.

They're 20x9 ET25 and 20x10 ET45 with 265/30-20 and 295/25-20, respectively.

 

looks great!! I like the 265/295 combo. Any rubbing front/back? What are you lowered on? Any pictures from front and back showing fitment?

Thanks

 

Thanks. There's no rubbing, and I went with the RENNtech sleeve/link setup.

Are these the angles you're looking for?:

 

Exactly what I was looking for thank you. Fitment is great!

 

Making a note of the offsets. EXACTLY the look/fit I'll be looking for when I upgrade wheels later too.

 

Looks great! I may be the one you were referring to with the black CI-Rs. Never ran them lowered and do wonder how they would have turned out.

 

looking good - i am in search of new tires for my wagon

currently have 255/30 & 285/25 but was recommended 245/35 & 275/30 to get a bit more sidewall to handle the potholes - did you consider a thicker sidewall?

thoughts?

 

Thanks! That was your car. The LM-Rs also look very nice.

The car is now making 665 ft-lbs to the wheels, so using a narrower tire never crossed my mind. If you look at a tire size calculator, you'll see that the size you're contemplating offers 0.4" of additional sidewall over your current sizes. Going wider with the same aspect ratio resulted in 0.2" of additional sidewall. The difference in sidewall height is academic and your ride quality will be impacted more by the stiffness of the tire you select than it will by 0.4".

If your main concern is durability over potholes, I urge you to consider putting 19s back on the car, or even stepping down to 18s.

 

thanks for sharing your thoughts- was just looking for opinion on sizing - just went down to the shop and re-ordered - agreed going narrower also would have given the stretched look which was not what i was looking for either given pushing 650 ft/tq

 

Congrats on the new ride!

 

Thanks. Whereabouts in Atlanta are you? I'm on the Cobb/Paulding border, west of Marietta Square.

 

North Fulton

 

I used to live in that area, but 400 forced me to move. I despise that highway.

 

Lol yup, it certainly has its moments.

 

So much winning! Looks amazing!
