    20 inch American Racing Muscle Phantom's on the Magnum

    Finally got my pops to get some new wheels! Went with the Muscle Phantom's and were very happy with the way they look! They're wrapped with 255/45s Yokohama spec-x tires.

    Let me know whatcha think!

    Looks real nice!

    About those Parada Spec-X tires...how's pops liking them? I'm thinking about those for my MSRTs, if I decide not to sell them. Do they have rim protectors built into them?

    Thanks!

    Well, they were just mounted today. I will report back in a few days and let you know how they perform. as for the rim protectors, i'm not too sure, but ill take a better look. being 255s they don't stick out past the rim really. Not sure how wide these rims are but i would have to guess at least 8.5 inch. so you could curb them fairly easily.

    They're 20x9" 15mm offset - according to Tirerack's site. It is interesting the tire sidewall isn't proud of the wheel face/rim, as you said. The Goodyear 255/45-20's are a bit more full in section than the Yoko's, it seems.

    Nice look. Thanks for posting!

    The design of the spokes coming all the way to the edge of the wheel helps them look bigger than they are. A lot of 20's look pretty small, but these don't.

    I've never seen those wheels before, nice and unique.

    Precisely the reason I don't like many of the fat lip/deep dish wheels. You have to go to a huge diameter to make them look decent. Also, the primary reason that you don't see the OEM's doing many deep dish wheels.

    I like them, and they go great with the color of car. They are sort of on the "aggressive" side to me, (as opposed to stock or high luxury or whatever) so I'd go with black stripes somewhere on the car. The car is basically very stock looking, except the wheels. It now needs to match the rollers.



    My car is Stone White, and my wheels are a bit less "racey" looking, so I've been reluctant to go with stripes. If I had those wheels, I'd be ordering the stripes right away. No doubt.

    Love these wheels .... wish they offered them without the hard-to-clean bolts around the lip and maybe with a matching machined lip / edge ?


    Either way, to me they look like modified Challenger-style rims, and that's no bad thing
