Cool

Lol.. catching air xj style..... that's hilarious.. nope I don't plan on jumping anything anytime soon on the highway..... but ill be sure to send you a link to the video when I do. Lol. because I have to account for the spacers, My game plan is to eventually collect 20x9s all around so they're not hanging too far out of the wheel well. I guess ill look on ebay for individual deals on some used polished aluminium rims to avoid the 20x10s.. your thoughts?

Street driving on that wheel set with spacers is not as hard as wheeling on a set of 33's or 35's less backspacing.

I think it's less "dumb" to roll around long island on those srt wheels than burn up a set of nice mud tires or even AT's with zero intention of going off pavement. At least it wouldn't be posing like so many mall crawlers.

You can keep your 24s, cause we've got 44s lol

44s on a 20" rim would look pretty good I think.
Another thing to think about:

This is what happens when your rims are too big for your tire diameter
