Thanks for the write up! Very helpful, I will check out that website. I see how they tuck in more than the stock 20" wheels. Which to me is a benefit so the wheels wells catch more road debris than the side of the car. Also improving my splash guards once those are installed.

Great write up, that help a lot. 7mm I can live with, not sure I want to risk it with the 2013 wheels. Looks like I'll be looking for some 18" 2016 wheels.

Yeah, that's exactly why I did the research to figure all this "stuff" out. I found a used set of Gen 5 wheels with snows for under $500 and really wanted to pull the trigger. But after looking at the details I decided against it. Yes I could have used 25mm spacers but that adds extra hassle and expense. Plus I don't like spacers in general, especially deep ones that have to bolt onto the hub and then give another set of studs for the wheel to mount.

So I ponied up the cash for a new set of Blizzaks mounted to new wheels at Tire Rack.

One more web site that helped me was wheel-size.com:

But up until a month or so ago, their numbers for Gen 6 were wrong--just copy-pasted from Gen 5 . I ended up taking a wheel off to check the stamping.
