    I bought my '14 used and it came with 20" tires and custom rims. The silver on the rims is flaking off, badly.

    1. Has anyone experienced flaking rims? Can they be repainted or re silvered?

    2. Unless I swap out the rims it looks like I'm going to need 20" tires in about 10k miles. Any recommendations for good 20" tires?

    3. Do those big tires cut down on your gas mileage?

    Powder Coat, get a decent level, and throw the Toyo Open countrys on it.

    Where are you located? I have a set of Black TSS 20” wheels with tires I’m looking to sell. I’m in the Humble TX area.
