20" wheels can have a significant effect on the performance of the vehicle. Slows you down a bit(wheel weight and circumference increase). Also, I know ride quality suffers and I've HEARD that the cars handling gets compromised(not sure about that tho). I asked for an explanation from the gentleman but he never got back to me. I wasn't doubting the guy but based on my knowledge and the fact that there are many high performance vehicles that come with stock 20's, I didn't really understand how handling gets compromised when rolling on DUBS. Car looks sooper sick tho!!! Hope this helps.

They not forged. I would say they are comparable to VMR.

Not a light wheel as far as I know...and as mentioned, not forged. I don't have any first hand experience with them myself. Comparable to a VMR sounds about right.
