My only concern would be a spare. You must be ready to buy 5 wheels/tires of the same circumference. And what happens if you need to find another tire right away? It took me two weeks just to find a 19 set of tires. God help you if you are on a road trip and need new tires.

But that is not a concern to many.

i have 19 all around right now and my spare is an 18" wheel. I won't be changing it out.

I also really like the 132's but I am getting a very good deal on 168's so if it doesn't work out then I will just keep 132's.

What kind of deal are you getting? I'd like to get an idea of what to expect. OEM or replica?

I'm interested in your deal also. :)

Do you expected to lose 1 mpg by going to 20" rims?

Go for the 20s. The toyos are relatively inexpensive for 20 inch rubber. I went with 20" stag. style 132s and love them!

20's
 
Ya, I am thinking about doing the same thing. I have the same 19's and may upgrade to 20's. My tires are brand new so i am waiting for them to wear down. Do your ride a favor, show it the respect it deserves and clean that bad boy:thumbup:

The deal I'm getting is for OEM wheels for 650 the whole set. Also hunter1 I cleaned it this weekend looked very nice but then it rained on it. :(

BruinMan 06-07-2008 02:10 AM

Which rubber are you going to buy?

Oh yea! $650 for OEM, can I jump on this deal too?

hunter1 06-07-2008 12:07 PM
