Ordering 20" Rims Need Advice

Please Do Not go on telling me that I should go 19" Max.. 20's won't look good etc...

I need advice on which 20" Chrome rims would look nice on a RX8 .. I don't want Bling Bling I want Sporty Deep Dish maybe staggered..

I also need some links to Websites that Offer sick deals on Dubs..

Thanks

J

if you want a deep dish wheels. the fabulous expand racing wheels will look good on it but its not chrome. if u want chrome u can get the fabulous expand/profound/profound dish, they have the chrome ones...

go to this site if u want to see the wheels:

hey man, its your car, and you should go and look at the wheels and decide for yourself
not sure how it works in the states, but here, i can bring my car to a wheel shop and select the styles/sizes i want, have them put next to the car and see if i like it or not......
