I thought about asking the same thing, but I'll probably keep these until they get bad enough to do something about them and then change them for some lightweight 20" Centerline forged wheels or something similar. It's not just the look, but the weight. Changing to stock brushed aluminum won't change the weight. Stockers weigh about 43 lbs (so I'm told) and Centerlines in 20x8.5 size are about 24 lbs.

weight is my concern too.

what are your thoughts? should i just snag some 17's...and throw high profile tires on there, or get decently sized wheels, that are just light weight?

i didnt' know you could get 20" rims that weigh 24 lbs...geez

edit: holy buttcrap...just looked into centerline...i could get 20x8.5 that weight 24lbs. that's badass.
