Cars not lowered I'm guessing? Back end looks a little high but that could be the angle of the photo

Looks great!

I only wish I could see these rims in the grey finish on this car with the same great HQ photos.

How about we hook you up and you can be the first to shoot the photos for all of us. I may have something similar with the 5thGen. let me scramble around for a pic.

Really don't think you can lower it with those wheels. Is it available in a 9 up front and 10 in the rear. I have to keep my stuff tucked under the car so I can lower it when kits are available in a month or so. Looks awesome.

These are absolutely available in a 20x9" front and 20x10" rear.
Here are a few pictures of the fitment of that setup.








Please let me know if you have any other questions, or if you would like to get a set ordered.

If you run a 305/30 instead of the 305/35 pictured you can lower it. Either way works it's all about personal preference in terms of appearance. As picture the rear looks like it's higher than the front and I prefer a more level look.

front tire is 245/45/20
rear tire is 275/40/20

as far as the brand of tire, we have several different brands available.

On a side note, if you are running the 2016 model, 10mm spacers will be needed for this setup. 20x10 and 20x11 are perfect fitment with no spacers required.
