Looks nice. Good choice on those wheels. I suggest upgrading your brakes pretty soon or you'll be cleaning them all the time. Our 05x's still have the older dust monster brake setup.

When I saw the thread title, I was worried. I pictured spinners or some chrome monstrosities. I was pleasantly surprised with some nice looking sporty rims. What brand are those rims? I am not a brand snob and going to flame if they are not Volks, just curious.

Me too. Very, very few 20's look good to me and even fewer look good on our cars. And not only what brand are they, but what specs? Widths, offsets, tires, etc.

Looks good man, I love that style of mesh wheels. What the specs?

Thanks for all the compliments guys. The specs are as follows:

20x8.5 all way around, Didn't do the staggered fit as it is awd.
245/35/20 Nitto NT555 Tires
+35 offset
Wheels are MRR GT1's Hyper Silver Finish

I want to drop it some, but still not sure on that yet. I hear dropping an awd is a PITA and expensive. Plus I live in Ohio and we get snow here, its nice to have awd and if I lower it that may not be so hot in the snow lol. But that look of it being dropped is so much better.

Looks good man. i like it. But i have a question. Do you go off-roading often? You have the ground clearance for it lol

Lol, no off roading here, but new to the whole game when it comes to lowering especially awd. I know BC racing just released some coilovers for the x which are nice but expensive. Then I would prolly have to get a camber kit as well the get that in line. I really just trying to wait and see how everyones x is that purchased the coilovers. If everyone likes it and don't have too many problems I will prolly do it. This is an everyday driver for me, so I am not gonna go for a super aggressive drop, but I would like to close some of that gap.
