ha. i agree on both points.

no rub at ALL with 20's and a drop?

what about suspension and handling? ive heard dubs do handling a severe injustice.

If its a good rim (2, or 3 piece) and not too heavy, it will handle better, look many of the rides in this forum and ask their owners, and look at the banner ad at the top of most of these pages, Top Secret runs dubs and I sure they wouldn't put in anything that would make the car handle worse.

No rubbing at all so far, I test drove them last night and went over some pretty nasty bumps with no problems, the ride feels as smooth as stock, no change what-so-ever, I love it, but they'll def. look better once it's a little lower...and we'll see if the handling is any worse/better.

First of all, i would like to ask, what is "dub"?

Second, i think those rims are very nice rims for the price, and i'm planning to get them for my IP coupe in the exact same size and width during spring time. Please update us on how they feel and handle.

Oh yea, and some far shots when the sun comes out will be very much appreicated.
Thanks

Dubs = 20 inch rims, and so far they are wonderful and handle great, as soon as I get some spare time (maybe this weekend) I'll take some day pictures.

I got these from www.hpautoworks.com for an insane price, so if you guys want something similar talk to Andy or Jon and just mention my name, Russ, and they'll hook you up...I couldn't find a better price anywhere!!!

Im also trying to decide if i should get 19's or 20's. Is the handleing that much worse for the 20'? Im looking at the Zenetti Deuce B rims. They're sick! what do you guys think.
