I Think I Found My Rims, But Do They Fit 20's!!!

Alright guys, I think I MIGHT have found my rims!! I'm WAY OFF what I was originally planning!! But I'm not sure if these will fit without any problems. I'm thinking 20" chromes! I know alot of you are against chrome rims on black cars, but it's just my personal preference. I'm not a gangsta by any means, that look just suites me. In my opinion the black rims look more like a racer to me. Maybe if I had the coupe, but I want a classy look with the sedan.

http://www.wheelsnext.com/product.phtml?p=772

Will these fit without rubbing? Is there anything I need to say specifically when ordering them. (Besides of course it's for a 2004 G35 Sedan Black) Like the tire size or anything?

I've done a ton of research on this site, and for the most part, I see people are torn between 19's and 20's. The only reason I'm going 20's, is b/c I don't have to lower the car. (Well, that's what I read on here anyways) Is that a correct assumption, 19's I'll need to lower, and 20's will fill the wheel well gap nicely and I won't need to drop it???

And are there advantages and disadvantages with 19's and 20's. I'm not a racer so weight isn't a big issue with me. But do 20's bend easier if I hit a pothole? Do you get warranties with these shoes?? LOL

Thanks for all your responses guys!!

depends how wide they are. it looks like they are giving you 245 wide tires now those would be for a rim maybe 8.5 inches wide minimum if they are for a rim any bigger your going to want wider tires than that because the rubber wont go over the edge of the rim cause you to get bad curb rash everytime you park the car. but 8.5 will fit so will 9.5, 10.0 will fit the back i dont know about the front. as for dropping it i still think the car will look like a monster truck i gave my brother my rims that are 18' and he put them on his rsx and his car now looks like a dune buggy. he has to lower that car real bad. of he was going from 16' to 18's

I spoke with a guy from wheelsnext.com on the phone. They have a computer program and he assures me 100% that he has tires that will fit. No rubbing at all. I just wanted to hear it from seomone other than a salesman.

So you're saying I"ll most likely have to lower it?? Are there pics of g's on here with 20's that aren't lowered?? I've looked but haven't had any success finding one.

Go with the 20's
Tires are easier to come by and you won't wish you went bigger.
Ride quality won't change much btw 19 & 20

My bad Goldclam, i thought that it was $2, 600 each because that's what it says on the site. But you are right. Stick with the 20s if you got the cash and try to not to get carjacked in that sick tinted out G of yours w/ 20s! Good shizzle man!

Last Call!!

Anymore advice before I pull the trigger on the 20" chrome Genoas?

Are there ANY other 20's I should be looking at? Show me the link if you can think of something.
