there is a blue firebird on the blackhorse pike, at the "tuner" shop in the gas just before pep boys on the southbound side, with "dubs" that looks gay.

depends on the vehicle. some cars can rock 22s, like the chrysler 300, and then trucks always need big wheels. 20s looked tiny on my denali.

not even aesthetically pleasing. nor is it practical. with those rubber band tires, you have to avoid ALL potholes, or worry about damaging a rim.

I actually meant i wouldn't go bigger than 18s on an f-body. There's definitely cars that can rock 20s and 22s and stuff.

there has been an influx on TGO of people with 20's. Most are on rubber band tires and don't look the best, but there is this one guy who has 20's and larger than stock diameter tires, i think 27" or so front and back and it look good. I tried to find it but couldn't, i guess ill have to keep looking

20's can be done tastefully.
Its all in the wheel & the stance.

Any they probably still rock the crappy 3rd gen 10" rotors and tiny drums. Idiots. Lots of added weight. Anything over 18 is a waste unless it is to make room for brakes.
