Check out my new wheels (on Black G-coupe)
Thanks for the comments everyone! If I had it my way, I would run 9.5's up front and 10.5 in the rear. However, since i got them at such a sweet deal (stock trade in + little bit of cash), I had no choice =D
Ducatiguy, you probably had to roll the fenders to get the 20's on w/o rub as you are on lowering springs correct? You are powedercoating them black I imagine? Hopefully I won't go through any major issues when I slap some coilovers on. I'd hate to have to cut/modify the fenders =/

Nice set up .......How come you went with two different tire type/brands?
I thought it was best to keep all four tires with the same tread pattern for maximum handling properties.....
I love the black look on a black car....looks quite the stealth appearance
Good luck.

I'm running 20x9.5" (+22) in the front and 20x10.5" (+22) in the rear. I did roll out my rear fenders, and they do not rub at all, even with my car lowered 1.75" and with people in the back. The tires tuck in very nice. The fronts you really can't roll much (not much a lip to roll) but you will have to trim away some of the inner plastic splash guard (upper section) and in doing so, the wheels will not rub. Without the trimming, the wheels do rub when you're turning into an incline, but that's all.
All in all the 20" fill the G's larger than life wheel wells very nice! They compliment the cars sporty stance and they're a real head turner!
I will be taking them apart later on this month and shooting them over to a local powder coating shop where I'll have the them painted with a mirror like black finish.

what offsets did you get?
ducati: you are goin to powder coat yours too? i like the way the silver set off the car. they really stand out. i think you should keep them the way there are.
