Wheels are definitely 20", and they look really nice with the polished front and black inners. I feel like I've seen a similar design before.

Some changes on the interior
New 18", 19" and 20" rims

I just hope they don't price it out of my range...I can afford one with the options I want with todays lease rates...the question is will I be able to afford one then with the new prices and lease rates.......excited nonetheless....
