20 inch wheels especially, 20 x 10 wheels... have you checked the prices on the tyres?.... in my area, 20 x 10 for GTRs... exotics etc... tyres CAN cost up to $900 AUD each....


19 x 10, 19 x 9 are more easily available and not exotic car tyre prices too.

Of course this is just from my experience and from talking to people around me, my group of friends and work mates are heavily into after market wheels... JDM types especially.
It was one of the BMI program "Ask Tsuchy" and they said which is buy expensive 20" tires or cheaper, but better & more option 19" tires. & BMI crew went several shops that had 19" wheels instead of 20" on GT-R. DK drove several of them and said they're nice & affordable. Also he said, it doesn't look bad either.
