I was wanting to upgrade from my stock 18's to 20's on my 06 GT. I was also going to lower it 1.5" on both front and rear. Has anyone had any problems with putting 20's on their 06's or know of anyone who has had any kind of rubbing problems? Also does anyone think that having stock brakes and rotors cause a problem or should I do a big brake upgrade first before rims? Thanks for the help guys.

With 20's and a 1.5 drop you will be good. check out club4geclipse.com. There is a few with pics.

Thanks for the help, I will definitely check out that site. So no need for a big brake upgrade first? Brake upgrade prices are sickly insane. Or does anyone know where to get a good deal on them? Most likely a Brembo kit..?

As of right now I'm not too sure about getting rid of the 18's. I might end up keeping them for use in bad weather if needed but if anything changes I will definitely let you know. Thanks for the interest.
