What do you guys think looks best on an AU ute 19's or 20's??
The rims are going to be Simmons fr's , I was going to go with 19's as I thought 20's looked a bit big. I am not sure now and would like to here what you think. Col on here was kind enough to photoshop some rims on my ute which are about the size of 18's I think.  Thanks for any feedback  Pete |

Personally I'd go 20's.
The ride quality is about the same between 19's and 20's. If you do go 20's, get your front guards rolled as lowered AU's on big wheels tend to scrub. 18's would be the best size if you want to retain a comfortable ride. 20's would look better though.. It all depends on what you want I guess..

20's give you the option of going the "MC Racing" FR copies.

Are you going a wider rear wheel to fill the guards a bit more..?

The rear's will have about 3 to 3 1/2" dish only to fit the brembo's behind them.
The fronts won't have much, maybe 1" to 1 1/2" , the front wheel arch is a problem, I will see how it goes. |
