Very nice! Some people complain that 20" rims are too big but I think they fit perfectly. Fills the whole wheel well nicely. I guess it really depends on what kind of rims you get (blinger vs. sporty). Nice job!

rims
thanks for the comments guys
im actually suprised with the ride quality it actually feels like im riding on my stock 18's i actuallly weighed the stock and the new rims and i was also suprised that they felt very similar in weight. handling also feels so much better because of the width i have on those bad boys. I've always had a sports car previous two cars were 3000gt's but never put rims on any of my cars it attracts so much attention people just looking at your car i went to the movies last nite and somebody put a note on my car saying i love asians call me and put there phone number on by just seeing my car i don't know how they figured i was asian maybe the fairlady z badge but thats (wanted or unwanted) attention i wouldn't of got with my stock's

rims
when i had the stock rims it would tuck in like that too im not sure if it has nething to do with dropping the car with eibachs and i havn't got an alignment after the springs or it could be a higher profile on the tire i have 285/35's on the rear

Those wheels are WAY to big imo. You obviously don't track the car becasue if you did your fender would rub into your tire and probably pop it. It's bad enough with 19's and running, for example, Tein Flex or something.
They look pretty cool though.
