20'' wheels on a Talon,thats just downright silly.It makes me sick how so many people want this bling shit nowadays,just because rappers do it in thier videos.Luxury cars with 20+'' wheels are not cool.Who wants to pay 30-40k on a luxury car when you could buy an EVO or something where your actually getting your moneys worth.

Luxury Cars with oversized wheels=:barf:
Fast Cars=:thumb:

Go buy a Navigator which is really an overpriced Expedition.For 40 grand ill buy myself an EVO and have a few grand to make well over 400 HP at the wheels:D
 
For one it was just a question, two Bling Bling factor? Id rather have a "bling factor" than a rice factor bud, sorry.... Im sorry dsm's have had wheel wells to fill ;), ill settle with the 19's
 
id rather have a luxury car than a fast car, so don't answer a technical question with your opinion. rappers arent my idols, they just happen to have the money to get the things everyone wants.

You pay over 40K for a luxury car for just that......LUXURY. Now im not defending this thread, I think 20's on a talon are silly man. And yeah I would take an evo over a Lexus or Benz any day, but it all boils down to personal preference. Those luxury cars are priced so damn high due to the features and *LUXURY* they come equipped with, and these days all these so called luxury cars are coming equipped with 350+ Hp engines give or take. So they aren't all overpriced cars with nothing to offer.

I always thought bling factor was rice factor on a sport comp, LOL. My god, even 19 is way 2 much, i wouldnt get anymore then a 17 and never anything that weighs more then the stock wheel, i followed that guidline with my rims. That 19 is gonna slow you down, and mess your car up, its gonna add weight for sure. If it was a N/A i can see getting extra stuff for looks thatll slow you down, but you have TSI, why mess it up?

how about you fill the wheel wells by lowering the car and using a decent sized wheel, like 17 or 18.. that's way cooler than some 80 lb. wheels on each corner.
Couldn't have said it better:D
 
Damn ive been postin on here for a while and havent seen negative postin like this, its not like i asked if my metal wing would fit on the roof, LOL i asked if they would fit period, dint say i heard it on a p.diddy song or 50 cent, and im sorry u cant afford anything bigger than 17's bud, but if ur car us fast enough then why not getin bigger, christ I can build and appartment complex in my wheel gap with 17's, and im kinda set with lowering it 4 inches to try to tuck the tire..... ive done it!

Lets not make coments about peoples finacial standings, im not trying to be mean to you so why be mean to me?. I wouldnt want 18,19 or 20 inch rims even if i had 10,000 just sitting around. Unless your in the market for rice, slow drivin or show then big rims just arnt good options thats all im trying to tell you, big rims will slow you down, its not a question of if your car is fast enough. If you dont like the wheel gap a good 17", good tire and little drop is what you want unless your into that other stuff.
 
Anyways you asked if 20s will fit.No they wont but I think if you roll the fenders 19s might fit.Im not sure they would fit though if the cars lowered.You might be able to get away with 18s and some Eibach prokit springs.Should have no problem with wheelgap after that.
P.S I wasnt trying to be a prick I just see no point in trying to make a sportscar into a luxury car.Those are gonna be some heavy ass wheels.
 
I think i stated that i wasnt talkin about speed, i just want to get rid of the wheel gap!
 
Agreed. but once again if i wanted a lux car Iwould have bought a vig like my brother, but i dint becuasei like tuning! and honda's suck, but either way..... Im not into rice or 24's wit crystal,LOL i just want to tuck the tires damn people
 
your never goin to be able to get rid of wheel gap.No matter what you do the cars goin to have wheel gap.I have 17s on stock suspension right now and it isnt too bad.But I see alot of cars with 17's and a 1 inch drop and it looks perfectly fine.What size wheels and what kinda drop you have right now?

Well i took it that you like speed cause you said you had a TSI. I would think that since you paid for a fast car and pay for the incurance for a fast car that you wouldnt wanna mess it up, but if you really want to mess it up go for it.
 
Nineteens will fit for sure, but if your going for all show no go, then go for it. Like someone said before, getting huge rimes will not always cure your gap. I have my stock 16 inch GST rims-polished, with suspension mods (see list of you want) and I have little to no wheel gap. Lowering your car with some 18's (since thats what your going for) would look dope. Just buy a set of Eibach springs and 18's. You'd be happy. If I can rid my self of my wheel gap and I have the stock 16's...than you obviously don't need dubs!

18, 19, 20 inch rims has nothing to do with being rice. Rice is putting on mods that say fast, when there's nothing to back it up...its a front. 19" rims do not say anything about acceleration, they are for looks. If he wants large rims, then he obviously wants the look.

Knocking him for sacrificing a bit of speed because he values style as well as substance is retarded. It can be argued that folks like yourself who claim speed is the holy grail are involved in a futile pissing contest that you'll never win. There will always be someone faster. Style, however, is always #1 in the eyes of its creator. If he can outrun 95% of the cars on the road, then he has a right to not be falsely accused of rice when he wants to add some of his own style to the ride.
