Any rubbing issues or fender rolling required? What size tires did you go with.

Also, what's the ride quality like on the 20's?

Sorry for the questions, I'm just considering going with the Penta's, but want to know if I'm in for any surprises. Thanks.

Thanks

Ride quality is great, feel a little more bumps but nothing more then the stock 19's. When I first put on the wheels the car was cambering real bad, especially in the rears. I was negative 2.5 in the rear and almost -2 in the front. The ride was horrible. I got the SPC camber kit and realigned the car and no problems at all after that. In fact it rides so much smoother, and now I know at least im not wearing the tires out as fast.

Highly recommend the SPC camber kit.

I have no rubbing issues at all, in fact i have had 4 people in the car and no rubbing, a little bumpy, but not to much.

Hope that helps.

Pentas come in one color,
They were the replacement for the Axis Supermesh, which have rivets look like a 3pc wheel for 1/2 the cost.
I live in chicago as well, the worst roads you could possibly imagine, especially with i94 all torn up.

Do you get a little vibration at high speeds?

I will get 20" forged something for the G.


Those 20" Pentas look incredible man! I just picked up a '01 Jimmy for the winter they are dirt cheap right now since ppl are freaking out over gas going up a tad.





Here is what I sold, before i lowered it.
19x8.5 19x9.5

Nice car and wheels. You ain't joking about the tollways here man (where does all the toll money go?). The roads are just brutal. Every time I drive into the city I'm afraid I will bend a wheel or something.
