Sounds ghetto. Why 20s? It will ride harsher and the tires will be more expensive. I like having more sidewall.

Not my cup of tea either, but because you like having more sidewall, doesn't mean somone else does. 37's on 20's is about the same as my 35's on 18's, sidewall wise. To each his own. I could care less as long as it's used for it's intended purpose....... offroad.

This one has 20" Rock Stars and 37's. I think it looks pretty bada$$. But not really something to take rock crawling unless you want the wheels to get all banged up. To each their own.

Both wheels and tires will be heavy also, so power will be decreased. Start looking at the weights of wheels and tires and you will be amazed. I wanted 20s too till I looked the info up.

You can't get away without the "bling" feeling with 20"s unless you are going to run 44" or better...

That sounds like a good combo, as long as you don't care if they get messed up. Some guys run 17's with 33's, I don't think you would be lacking on sidewall. I love how everyone on this site rip's on big rims so much. There are people with some ugly set-ups on here but I keep it to myself because they like it. If he want's 20's, what do you care. Everyone always say's "sounds ghetto" , I can gaurantee most of the people on this site have never been in one, so how would you know?!
