There is a little difference in performance w/ 20's. I hope to offset that soon with FI though. They are TSW Kyalamis in Hyperblack.

That's good. I don't know though.. I like the "slammed" look, being real close to the ground. I guess that's the ricer side of me. But it doesn't look bad at all.

Thumbs up
Put my vote in for 'Lookin Good!'

I really like wheels that fill the entire wheel well, without making the car look like it's on stilts. Good lookin combo with the Tiens and Twenties!

Ha.. no not at all. It's cause when you see ricer Civics, they are so low that they scrape everything. I'll admit too, when I had my Civic back in the day, it was very low. My sideskirt was as low as my ankle. And I know that cause everytime I got out of my car, I would bang it against my car.
