Welcome to the forum! D-Ron,
My 98 looks like yours with different wheels and I haven't put on my portholes yet. Nice ride buddy. I hope you enjoy this site.

Welcome to the forum. Same question. I say 20s. What kind are they? What size tires are you riding?

I say 20's as well. Some cars make 20's look small. My one buddy has a 2007 Infiniti G35x with 20's on it, and they look kinda small. I dont know if its just the style or the tire size. Thats my main concern about purchasing 20's for the Riv. I dont wanna look at my riv wit the wheels on and think they are small.

Thanks for the welcome. They are 20" Verde Diamond wheels. I was going to put 22's on it but didnt wanna cut any fender or do any trimming just yet.

By the way I have a good connect on tires, so if you need 20" , 22" inch tires let me know and I will give you the name and number of the company.

The tires are 245/35/20 I also believe that the 255/35/20 will fit also. I can get a good deal on these tires if anyone needs some. BRAND NEW

Sweet! I put 22s on my Impala. I like the look of the 20s on the Riv though.

D-Ron, welcome aboard. What year is your Riv? The portholes look decent on there, but I couldn't bring myself to put them on mine. Rather, I'm planning to remove some excess stuff like that.

Subject: Re: We Have a Newbie Fri May 25, 2007 9:38 am

The Rivi is is 98 SC with currently 89,000 miles. I had a Buick Lesabre with rims and she broke down awhile back so I picked this car up from my moms friend for $4500. Its super clean except a few dings her and there.

Nice deal! I got my 98 last summer with about 100k, no dings, excellent paint, perfect interior, runs great, for $6k. At the time I thought the price was high, but couldn't get the seller to budge a penny on price. 9 months later it seems like it was a pretty good buy for me after all. burnout
