Default Formula 43 20" wheels


Formula 43 built our business on 18" and 19" wheels for race and sport.
We are expanding and considering offering 20" wheels as well and would like to get some feed back from the community to see how well a 20" wheel will be recieved.
Whats your opinion? Will the new 20" size fill a need?
We appreciate your comments and feed back and rest assured, all will be considered carefully.
As always, thanks for your support.

The Chevelle guys might eat it up Scott. The Camaro guys, not so much unless your last name is Renner...

Thanks Ron!
We understand its not going to be our biggest mover but we want to offer
20" for special builds in pro touring as well as the newer cars, Camaro, Challenger, Viper etc... Everyone at formula 43 is excited about the opportunity to expand our line and we want to be sure we get accurate information when considering what parts we need to build and have on the shelf. I appreciate your input.

^ Professional as always Scott. I think having the 20" option in your line is a good thing as long as it doesn't eat up too much inventory carrying cost...

Looking forward to more great designs...

I would think 17s would sell better than 20s. I understand where tire companies are investing their money, 18s and 19s.

I know I will never go over a 17 on my falcon. Just too big for the small car. If I could get tires I probably would be at a 16" wheel to save weight and run a smaller diameter tire as well.
