Yes it is. Thank you. A shot for you.

Hey nice car what size and kinda rims you have there. I thinking about getting a pair gor my 06 I had some nice 20" in my 01 but they would cause the frame of the wheel well to uncuff and exposes a sharp ege that would then cut the tire. I'm not looking foward to that again. The car looks goid stock but from the experience of the 2001 I had I know rims turn in it a totally different car that a head turner

Jaguar Senta replicas. All front wheels because the rears don't fit.

Wait which set? There's no pic in your post. If they're silver those are 20" Sentas, if they're chrome they are 19" Konig Prophets and I have those now. We traded awhile back, by the way the Prophets are for sale.

You have any problems to the car do to the rims scrubbing

 

[jolinc01]

The 20's rubbed on crappy country roads, but I was lowered on Eibachs and was running a 255/xx/20 tire instead of a 245/35/20. The 19's rode fine lowered and only rubbed on big bumps with the 245/40/19's.

20's lowered

19's lowered

 

[antonio fuller]

These would scrubb never lowerd

 

[jolinc01]

Then the offset or something was off. +42 to +40 seems to be the sweet spot for no rubbing.

I don't no much so I will be sure to show this post to my next installer

+1 size is only recommended for all around driving. Around town more than +1 maybe OK. Freeway/Interstate long trips cause tires to heat/expand blow out. Observed a lot between VA/Montreal, VA/Fla & VA/Mississippi trips. Sidewalls won't make it on +3 sizes sometimes. +2s seem to work most of the times, both put a lot of extra lateral wear on bearings etc. JMHO

Yeah I end up replacing all the bearings on my 2001 which included the hub also that can be pretty pricey
