    if you can get the right offset, width and tire to fit under the wheel wells, it shouldn't hurt anything except the feelings of everyone that sees it.

    it will put more stress on your axles, it will cause your transmission to run hotter in heavy traffic, it will put much more stress on your brakes, and it will cause your suspension to be severely overworked.

    not to mention it will look completely stupid and trashy.

    If you post stupid and incorrect information, you will get red nuggets.

    However I do agree it may look rather cool, but 20s are the biggest I'd go on a 8G Galant.
