Right Wheels?
So, getting amped to go get this rig this weekend. Reading up on these and wondering if you guys think these are the right wheels. I thought I read that it came with 20's. These look small. Thoughts?

They just don't fill wheel wells very much, was hoping for something more beefy. Will see what it looks like in person.

It's a big wheel well. It's designed to take up of road bumps. People wishing fort more of low rider look will lower the car or add wheel spacers to fill the wheel well more (at the cost of losing off road ability)

Well, picked the rig up today. Long day on New York city roads-they SUCK!! Some details. The original window sticker was in owners manual, it is a 2003, not 02. Runs well, interior in great shape, exterior probably a 7, tires are great-and huge!! Got it home, scanned codes and had a torque converter slip code and bank 1 camshaft something something. I have cleared everything and will see what returns. Biggest immediate issue is a major clunking in both front and rear when you move the car slowly and gently apply the brakes. Have to jack the whole thing up, wheels off and check subframe bushings and everything else.
Overall, I am happy with it for $3K. Think it does need some work, so time will tell. A little concerned about the transmission code. Will follow up on that. I am trying to post pictures but if I go advanced, the box comes up to upload pics. It won't let me highlight the "browse" button to access my photos. I have a Mac and use safari. But, I tried Chrome and Firefox. Nothing. Anyone else having issues with this?

My 4.6 has the same torque converter error and that will require a TC rebuild.

Clunk rear sub frame bushings clunk front tension struts.
The subframe bushings more of annoyance than anything my car's been clunking for years I finally got the tool and bushings yesterday. Tensioner. Struts are not a terribly difficult job but unless you have special tools get the whole arm don't try to swap bushings.

Click on the paper clip at the top of the message box. It will take you to the desktop or any other folder that you may have if you want to load pictures. This is on my Chrome Browser on my IMac.
Congrats on the new SAV.
