Rocking on Techart 20's - pics / comments!

Just scored a sweet set of TA 20's (20x11 R and 20x 8.5 F).
Wasn't thinking of upgrading wheels for a while but this was one of those "total steal deals" - with conti tires even.

Anyway, here's a pic. Comments welcome. The ride on 20's is about the same as my 19's, running 40lbs F/R pressure. No diff.
I'm using 7mm spacers in front to bring the front wheels out a bit, perfect.

Thanks guys- I was feeling dubious as well about putting on 20's, but they actually fit the car very well. -Case and point, the fine Mexico Blue example above ^^
Again, I'm not noticing any ride quality diff. I have noticed that I'm able to break the ass-end loose easier... less sidewall / tire flex.
-but that could also be from the new AfterHours sport exhaust I just had installed. Holy hell it made my 997 quite a bit torquier and perky, not to mention sounding like an 800lb gorilla at WOT- Going to put my pcar on the dyno sometime this week and see if I get the same gains the sport pipes gave me on my 996!!

All in all this has been a GREAT mod week
