Default 20" saleen rims

I found a pretty good deal on a set of these. But im only 17 and cant afford to drop the car at all. I was just wondering how my car would look with 20" saleen rims. I have pics in my profile that should give you guys a pretty good look. I know 20" are not the best for performance, but being 17 i allready have enough power lol.

thanks in advance.

Saleen, Inc.

theres a couple pictures....ill most likley be getting them in chrome. I will also take opinions on other wheels being any other sizes.

thanks guys!

that color looks great with chrome rims, but I would lower it first, it's a whole lot cheaper than saleen wheels. I know I wanted bigger wheels but after I lowered the car it gave me a new appreciation for the stock bullits

It will improve the look and the bigger tires on 20's improves grip. You dont need to lower it, the rims will still look good. Now later on down the road...
