Default Thinking about putting 20's on my baby

Guys I need some help. I have been kicking the idea around about putting 20 in rims on my magnum. Only thing is I'm not sure which rims will look nice. I have found a few that I like but I cant to find a sight to visualize them on the car. There has also been a few I thought I liked but when i saw them on other Magnums on other sights they were ugly on the car.
I really like the look of the 5 star that American Racing puts out with the black powdercoat and polished lip, but I would like to see some other cars with a different set-up. I have an inferno red Dodge Magnum so what do you think would look good? What tire size do you reccomend with 20in wheels.

One other thing I really like either the stock wheels on the car or the SRT-8 rims where can I find the stock R/T rims in 20's like they have on the DUB edition police car or the SRT-8 rims w/out going through the dealer and paying a fortune.

Go to aewheel.com. My buddy works for them. Its American Eagle Wheel Company. They have a new rim out that is a Black Chrome. I've only seen pictures but he said they are NICE!! Its kind of like the Chromeillusion paint you see, its a Chrome rim, but at an angle it looks black. I plan on getting a set for my Magnum.

I used Goodyear 245/45/20 because they are the same exact height of the original tires.
No speedo error.

TIS style 06

While I am getting the Foose Nitrous in 17" (edit correction just got) I liked the look of 20"s but could not justify the extra cost. Plus i drive Montana back roads in the summer and do not want to have to try to get a replacement 20" in the middle of nowhere MT.
The MHT site has two pictures of magnums with 22" but you cna get the picture I think.

Funny thing as i wrote this my wife just called and they just arrived.

I will get a picture up as soon as i can. Put one up when you decide so we can see.

What are the exact specs i need to look for when buying rims? I have the bolt pattern at 5x4.5(115) and the offset at 14mm. What is the most offset i can go w/out having it look stupid. I would like to have 20's look just like the stock 18's if possible and not stick out
