20's in Jersey ?

JaysBlueE92 · 02-06-2009, 09:07 PM

Just wondering for those of you on 20's or even 19's I guess in the NY/NJ area, are the 25 series tires( a must for E92's right?) that big a difference than say 35 series? I've had 22's with 285/35 on my previous ride on iforged and never bent/cracked a wheel. I'm careful, but i think 20's may be too risky and want your feedback. Just wondering if I could pull 20's off on the e92 and daily drive. Most likely I will go with strong wheels like BBS or DPE/iForged.

I'm giving it some serious thought, but have a feeling i'll end up getting 19's. with the way the roads around here are it looks like i'll have until may to decide until they fill these potholes

NJ roads are terrible... just terrible.. and I try to avoid as much bump as I can see already.. and still hit few bumps..

bknight · 02-06-2009, 11:02 PM

i'm rocking 19s and it's crazy enough around NYC and NJ for most people to think i'm crazy for not running stock 18s or even 17s
seriously though go for it man

If you're going to go through with it get tire and wheel insurance. Plan on taking advantage of it often.
