Damnnnnnnnn, that's off the chains I'm really feeling those rims. And thanks to Nefster for the explanation about the tire and rim size. I will have to keep that in mind when I purchase my dubs.

WOW! I like!

Those wheels look insane! I love them!

Are you planning on lowering your car? It looks good as is, just curious.

Neff: Great information as usual!!! I did notice that you used the 19" size in your analysis above. Does the same effect on the speedo reading occur with the 20" size....also, are those the best the width and aspect ratio for the 20" size change as well? What size did you go with for the 19"s?

Jetleaf: The Super Rozza's look great!!!! I was wondering how they looked in the 20" size on the G. They are my favorite rim and will be what I put on my car.

Nice rims man, they look good with the car, probably way too expensive for me.

Damn those rims are sexy...Hey Jet, if you don't mind me asking, how much did you get 'em for? And where did you get 'em? I'm really interested in getting rims, and these are definitely on the top of my list...

Question:

Other than more tire contact and drag on the road, why would wider tires lower your speedometer's reading? I can understand a shorter sidewall % would affect the overall diameter of the tire, which would affect the length of the rotations, but not the width. Am I wrong?

I really love those rims, but are they really cast?
