Thanks for the response, Lek.

Wow, that surprises me that they wouldn't need to recalibrate it, even for a half inch or so. But again, I'm very green in this particular area.

Here are the Photoshops. As is with stock, then the replica 20s, then the 22s. I think the 20s and 22s both look pretty sharp.

I am looking to buy some aftermarket replica 20s or 22s. I had a question on some 20s i was looking at the specs are Bolt Pattern 6x139.7 or also labeled as 6x5.5 with a +31 offset 78.1 mm hub bore. Does offset match the factory 20s?

Don't waste time switching 20 to 20, go 22 you won't sacrifice anything and it will look a lot better.

6x5.5 and 6x139.7 is the same thing. Inch and metric.

Yes it does.

Just get 22s the first time.

20s are a waste of time and money.

20" or 22" is a matter of opinion - yours, not someone else's. If you are going to buy snow tires research the sizes before you buy wheels. Make sure the right size is available for your wheels. Even a slight difference in tire size will effect your speedometer and odometer. On my 2013 with 20" wheels a slightly smaller tire size caused the speedo to be off by 3 mph at 65 mph. Prior planning prevents poor results.

A thought on "replica" wheels. How do you know what you are buying. Note the following quote from the owner of the site mentioned above. "I had issues with balancing with other companies that made this wheel so I no longer sell them." Do you want to take the chance that what you buy will have "issues" like he references? You'll have a lot of money invested before you find out. How can you assure yourself before you buy? Best bet is to buy true OEM wheels. You normally get what you pay for.
