Whats the obession with 20's on a car? You'll spend a butt load on rims and little rubber band tires, just to have them dented and turned into sqaures. You'll prolly spend more money getting them fix then is necessary. Stick with 17's or 18's with a thicker tire.

and would probably not be good for the everyday driver. Especially with that thin of a tire, you would really have to pay attention, so you dont hit any potholes, or anything sharp that could be lying on the road. If your car is just for show, and hardly does any driving 20's would be fine with the rubber band tire. For an everyday driver, get something smaller.

I agree with the ladies. Everyone is trying to put the tallest set of tires possible on their rides withthe thinnest pieces of rubber around them. Not only is it not as safe as a taller TIRE, not only does it not absorb the bumps in the road as well as a taller tire, not only are they outrageously more expensive because they know plenty of lemmings will purchase them at any cost to be fashionable, but they also rarely ever make the vehicle look better IMO. Going to a slightly taller tire is fine if the whole package works, but 20+" rims and rubber bands has never ever worked on any car I've ever seen and rarely on any truck, though you can get away with them more on trucks only due to the fact that the tires & rims on trucks are already pretty big out of the factory.
