The wheels themselves aren't bad, I just think 20" is too big for a 4th gen. Even in 19" the only wheels that seem to work are CCWs. A drop would help a little bit, but I still think it's too much for the car. I guess it depends on the look you are going for though, if you like it that's the most important thing of course.

This is exactly my thought

The angle of the pic is not the best but I have to agree, the rubber band tires don't go too well. The tire/wheel combo is actual smaller then the stock wheels and only about 3lbs per wheel heavier.

It was worth a try, they were sitting on the shelf. Thx for the replies.
