Thinking about rims... tires...

And the $2500 or so I am estimating means I need to get as much info as I can before springing it on the wife. Right now I am looking at the Enkei RT-6's in the 20" size:



For tires I am seriously looking at the Eagle GT-IIs in the 275/45/20 size, which will have a diameter close to the stock setup and go for $169 each. Fallback choice is a set of Pirelli Scorpion Zeros in 295/40/20s, at a bit more cost.

Anyone have any input on these, or any experience with them?

Are those 20"? I am trying to see how they will look on the red L, and how well they fill the wheelwell (dependent on tire size too, of course).

Chikenears, they have 5 lug fitments for the L. Discount Tire offers them, but their prices on the 20" ones are kinda high. Best I have found so far is over at S-Effects for $236 each. Almost $100 less than Discount. Now I have to decide on tires. Tirerack has only 7 295/40 series 20" tires, and most are more than the cost of the rims. Discount doesnt list any in that size, closest to the right diameter is some 275/45-20s.

I hate spending this much money... stresses me out wondering if I am choosing good parts or not...
