Here are pics of my DHS with the 20's. I like the way it looks but the tires need to be balanced because I have vibrations at about 55mph. Balancing them tomorrow. Let me know what you think.

Pretty slick... Not too flashy but just enough to stand out. I got 20's on my Deville as well and balancing is a must. Have fun choppin and watch those pot holes, curbs and haters.

BTW You might wanna upgrade your brakes...

Looks sick! Any reason why you didn't go with 22s besides price? I just bought my dhs yesterday (looks just like yours) and pretty anxious to put some wheels on but would sure like to go with 22"s if it will mount up with no mods. Thanks for any info you can give!

I balanced them today myself and now they ride so much better. I performed a static balance on them and the wheel that was off the most was off by 3 oz. not too bad but I got them all zeroed out and the ride doesnt vibrate at all, I can still feel the road but that's the sacrifice for rollin' on 20's.

Young Deville: Yeah I noticed my stopping power is kinda sketchy now, what brakes did you upgrade to?? Let me know.

Nem: The price wasnt really the issue, it was more of ride and functionality. For one 22's would have made me have to get a much lower profile tire and the less rubber you have between your wheel and the road is just more of a chance you could F*CK up your rims. Another reason I didnt go with 22's is because it makes the ride too firm. I just didnt want the headache of worrying about every little pebble on the road, that would take the enjoyment out of cruisin' for me. I think 22's look sweet on caddy's like ours but I just didnt want to deal with all the negative side effects. But if you can overlook those things, go for it. As for me I will stick with 20's. The ride isn't compromised a whole lot, the tires are a dime a dozen, and they're still big enough to get respect on road. It's fun watching haters watching me ride by. I just smile and give a head nod!! "Sup Dog?" LOL....

I glad to hear your enjoying your ride... As far as the brakes goes it was nothing big, I just when with some Cross Drilled Rotors with a set of Bendix Ceramic Pads for stopping power and low brake dust. I noticed a a huge difference in my stopping power. Its almost time for me to put my 20's back on, I can't wait.

Young Deville- I'm feelin your Lac. What size tires did you go with for you 20's? I'm puttin my 150 spoke DUB's on my 94 Deville and am debating whether to go with 255 or 245/40/20 or 255 or 245/35/20. My back wheel tucks so I don't want to go to wide.

Any advice is appreciated.
