I'm in the 20" inch club too!!

Can you guess where my son & I spent the day?

Yeah, he got 19 inch Volks Racing wheels for his new Si and I got my 20 inch five spokes in shiny black. We’ll take more photos when the sun comes up. Gotta unload the stockers from the back of the Ridgeline now….

Re: I'm in the 20" inch club too!!

LOVE those Volks! A great investment! I am not one who buys larger wheels/tires, but those would be HIGH on my list if I was in the market!

How does he like his Si? I LOVE this new look...much better than the hatchback a couple of years ago!

Cheers,
George

Very cool, Ron. Toyo rubber too - love the tread design. I like the way the wheel sits.

What offset is it? It looks like the tire is sticking a bit past the fender.

Re: I'm in the 20" inch club too!!

Looks nice! Would you give us a review of the difference in ride quality and handling as it compares to the 17's? The look is awesome - I am trying to decide between 18's and 20's (ASA AR1's pictured below) for my black RL

Re: I'm in the 20" inch club too!!

Hi gadgetz, That glass ya got J.C. for her Birthday was so bitchin you are DA Man my friend. Thanks, I think both Hondas came out really well.

Hey George, My kids Si handles like a 250cc shifter kart with Navi and air conditioning. So it was a natural for sticky tires. The large diameter hoops are just a fad out here on the west coast but I gotta say, I really love the look. He just sold his 01 Si coupe.

Hello Wiley, We can still park next to each other on Saturday, Right??

Wow mugen1, is it warm enough for you to mount yer billet door sills yet!?
The Toyo’s had the coolest look to me but the Nitto’s and BFG’s are also very nice looking. I wanted a nice wide aggressive stance so I ordered the 38 offset. The really great part is that they CNC machined the backs “hub centric” so they roll just as smooth as the stockers which is pretty dog gone smooth! I’m really happy with both cars.

Wow RTL, we were looking at this exact wheel for a long time before I decided on the five spokes!! They really are a different look! I wanted an open wheel look cause I’m gonna do bright azzz RED calipers and maybe a big brake kit but your choice looks really good too!! I’m totally surprised at the smooth ride because I’ve slammed my del-Sol and ran 40 profile tires and ruined any sort of ride this car had. It would carve the turns like a slot car but was very hard on my back. So it’s really up to you. Go for the look or go for the comfort. Our Ridgelines ride smooth either way but my guess is 18 will be a little better on yer backside. I’m just an old fart reliving my boyhood with my son at the moment! Cheers!!
