20's and bag's

[leadfoot]

hi i got my 2002 galant ES yesterday i like it alot. im going to go show with it. I plan on putting 20's bag's and a full body kit along with shaving all the door handles alot more i should have the rim's and bag's by summer i posted this because i was wondering if there was any body work needed to fit the 20's on i know the bag's will help when driving but will the tires rub against the body (when turing) of the car. please give me advise or suggestion's on what i should get done to prevent this.

welcome to TGC,,, umm i dont know if you search on glanton 20's you will find a topic on it,, cause while ago someone had 20's

That's gonna be a TIGHT fit when you lower it to get out. You'll probably be sitting frame to tires when you get out.

[Lazarus]

Yeah if you get 20s man you won't need bags. you'll be sittin on the air in the tire. May wanna invest in a trailer to keep it in also . That's the only way your getting around in it.

[Ghost Beat]

cant say anythign that hasent been said yet...but if you do put on 20's its gona cost you a lot and its also gona be takign away all functionality from the car as well...

I got 18x8s and I rub on the body of the car on the rear driver's side tire. When you rub on every tight turn, and when people are in the car it constantly rubs......you feel like you have the most ghetto hoopty ass galant on the planet. It hurts my heart to even drive my car anymore. And I'm too broke to fix it right now........so.......watch out! :x

[Ghost Beat]

realy? that bad? yesh im on gc and agx and 18's myself and the only time i feel rubbing is when i hit the turns hard the front's rub a little thats about it but thats only when i put down a lot of pressure on the front end and hit the turn hard wich i dont do too often..

[balln8g]

I've got 18 x 7.5's on my ride.....NO PROBLEMS.

[antmoneygtz]

hey guys dont get me scared here... i bought 18"x8" about a month ago... never put them on yet though... waitin for better weather... wish me goodluck hopefully i wont get n e rubbin...

[leadfoot]

thanks for the replies guy's but that's not really what i was looking for any clue on what i should mod on the car to fit the 20's in and oh yeah i should be getting a system in about a week or so ill post pic's when i get it. my bro's got a hook up with MA audio so im probably getting 2 12's and a 2000 watt amp pushing the sub's and replace the stock speaker's. oh and indash MA TV

Here is a quote I found from wheelsboutique by searching TGC:

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(wheelsboutique)</div><div class='quotemain'>Well lets see 20" on a galant. we have done it 2 times ..a must coilovers..and customize the shock..(cut the huge cup on which the old spring sat on ..and rear fend rolling alot..and we used the coilovers to leave it a stock height. looked good cause the 20" killed the gap but the car did sit a little high..but can be done, we could send you a diagram on what to do ..wheels must at least be 20x8.5 with a 38+ offset 20x8 alot better ..less work..but very few 20s come by 8..call 1-866-51-wheels for more info..good luck </div>

I wouldn't worry. At stock height you will be fine and if you are still planning to get an air suspension you can set it to the perfect height.

thats interesting but then things changed since u won't have the stock shock and spring setup with bags. i'd talk to the person who's doing ur bags to see about clearance issues.

[leadfoot]

im going to get full body kit either one for our car's or just go custom and get one molded on it when it's at the shop in going to get the door's shaved as well when it's done ill drive it to where im getting the bag's installed and put the 20's on and have the bag's ajusted to the body kti so when i park and drop it it doenst slam my body kit and crack the pant the reason i this thread was to maybe find someone that had bag's and 20's but so far no and the other reason i was worryed about the turning. when im driving it im going to have it all the way up but im not sure if that will be enough so that is doesnt scrape the wheel well's or should i just get them out and the last reason was the brakes 20's will kill my breaks and it is also unsafe so i was kindof looking for people with modded brake to maybe say something : but oh well i have about 4 month's to get the full set up right now the car is bone stock

[leadfoot]

anyone have anything else to sugest or anything? :?:

[B19WHEELS]

Whats up you guys? I got some 19x8.5 Enkei Aegis wheels on my ride they come with a +44mm off set. I also have Hp coilovers. I rolled my fenders ghetto style with a baseball bat. I tuck the back wheels and almost tuck the front and i have no rubbing problems!!!!!

[B19WHEELS]

Ohhhh yea i almost forgot there is a company that makes a 20x 7.5!!!!! I cant remember the name right now i will post it later!!!! So yea 20's on bags can be done..

[TwistedGTZ01]

whuddup guys. i have bags with 17's, and i couldn't fit my pinky between the fender and tire. i dunno about 20's man. no way you'll get a drop from the bags without mods. i'm sure if you adjusted how low the bags dropped you somehow, it would work. but my 17's were tuckin tire

[leadfoot]

the lowest im going to 19's i want 20 because it bives that extra effect. but if the turning will be that big of a deal then ill just get 19's but i really want 20's

[Galant On 20s]

Check it out u could put 20s but there is lot of work to be done had my 20s over 1 year. i get a little rub but i fiberglass the quarter panels i customiz my struts and i am still working on it. iam giong to bag it in summer. got my body kit makes it look sick know.
one more thig the front is lowerd almost 2in. back is stock, but got the system in the back and it lowers it 1.5 in. take a look.
