You just need to call Tire Rack and order their Paint-on-Retread rubber. It's not listed on the website, so you have to call them directly. It's a special high-performance rubber compound so you must be a BFD Team D/A member to order. Apply it directly to the rims for that "rubber band" look. This is the easiest, because they don't make 225/25/20 tires, which is the correct size.

The most recommended 20" chrome wheel is the Pimp-Daddy brand Ultra Blade Chrome Big Baller, available in 6 to 8" widths. You'll need 50mm spacers so they stick out 2" beyond the fenders, or else you'll look stupid with the entire wheel fitting inside the wheel well. They have extra heavy duty rims so their more bend resistant. They weigh about 80 pounds each.

You can probably get about $350-500 for the Borbets, depending on the style.
