New Wheels and Tires for '17

[NCMTNS]

Got some new shoes and wheels today. TIS 535MB 20x9 +18 offset. Nitto Terra Grappler G2 275/55/20. Ever so slight rub on full lock on back mud flap. And I mean slight. I think they fill in nice...

Love the tires and how they fill in space/proportions, but not a fan of wheels. Too busy for my taste and look like wheels from every pickup truck on the road. I went to 20s as well but decided on LX570 wheels. Of course it is all matter of each person's preference.

Love the black accented wheels with the white exterior. Looks mean. I really do think the 20" wheels are the new 18"'s.

any noticeable change in ride or handling?

How much do they stick out with +18mm offset? Can you post a picture? Thanks.

Looks like they stick out quite a bit:

HTH

Yup, personal preference. Looked at the LX570 rims but they look like wheels from every Lexus SUV on the road. LOL....

Not much, but have not driven too far yet. Going to mountains in the next few days so should be able to give an update.

See attached. Yes does stick out some. But not beyond what I was expecting.

Funny. I was thinking that I hadn't seen those wheels before...and that they look pretty mean.
Granted I'll never do 20's, but I think they look pretty sweet!

OK, so got some miles on the new rims/tires. The ride seems a little more stable, probably due to the setup being pushed out a little further then stock. Very happy with the look and the ride. Can even say that wife approved!
