I've heard of these wheels and know they are an Italian brand and make some pretty classy wheels, some of which are stock on Euro vehicles. These are sized at 6x4.5(6x114.3) and fit our trucks. Wanted to chop them on a truck to see how they looked. Ad shows them listed as 20x8.5

My current stance with AR RT-S in 20" (retrofits not installed in these pics)

What ya'll think? Not a bad looking wheel on this body.

not my favorite wheel (i like the ones you've got for your truck, honestly) but i thought you were getting ready to sell it/trade it anyway?

I also like the all silver look you have going on in the front. I need to do that.

Thanks Pat. Things didn't work out with getting rid of the truck, so now I'm keeping it indefinitely...for the time being.

I'm not particularly sure I'd want those wheels, but was really curious to see how they'd look on our trucks. The ad has them listed for a Durango, but I know they'll fit our and be almost flush with the fender well face. Might be a good wheel option for someone looking to create the first truly "stanced" Frontier.

At least the Photoshop gives people a real view of what something like that would look like, properly scaled, on our trucks. The ad has them listed for $950 + $79 shipping for the set.

Thanks man. Just takes some good prep and paint on the bumper and grille.

I'm a newbie, I would like know if you have to add springs or coils, and how is the wear and tear of those tires, any issues with the cambers or alignment?

I have a 2011 SV model with stock 16"

Thanks for the advise

My truck is still on the black AR 20"s and is on a stock suspension. I'm on my second set of 20" tires and have never had any improper wear or alignment issues to speak of. Original tires were Nitto 420s in 265/50-20 and now I'm running Continental CrossContact UHP in 285/50-20.

Was the difference on tire size very noticeable? for a conservative good looking setup which size do you recommend. I tend to like stock like, I mean upgraded, but to look decent because I don't like those thin tires, also by increasing to 20" I supposed the the truck got a little higher.

 

[silvrbreez]

I tend to like stock diameters also and that's why I went with the 265/50-20 (30.5" OD) on my first set. With that, I can't say it felt any different height wise. Even with the slightly higher 285/50-20 (31.3" OD) the notice while driving wasn't measurable. Neither was a thin look and stayed thick and filled up the wheel wells nicely on the stock suspension.

Do you have any issues with the tires rubbing? I'm thinking about getting a 18x8.5 +20 rim with 285/60 sneakers and I'm afraid they are going to rub. These rims will stick out .4" more than yours.

I like your rims alot. Are you using adapters? If so, how thick are they?

Thanks,
Jim

 

[silvrbreez]

I used to rub a tad bit at full lock, but a little trimming and that was gone. You may rub too, but just find where it snags the wheel well a bit and snip that off.

No adapters, just the wheels themselves.

Thanks for the compliment. Been rolling on these for 6+ years strong with no issues. Wheels could use a bit of refurbishing on the clear, but I love it as is. The little areas of flaking clear adds a bit of character and reflects the nearly 100k miles I've put on them.
