if only you went with my size rims/offsets/tires if you wanted the stretch look, no worries about any rubbing issues with my 1" drop, im even sure i could go with the 250 springs. BUT... if i went 20"s, i'd want a 35 series tires, 30's are kinda thin and the roads here are 3rd worst in the nation.

i am on springs. i didn't want to stretch the tires. I may have been able to get away with it but it wasn't that much to roll the fenders. I am still waiting as the fronts there is an issue clearing BBK so i have to get a spacer and the seller is working with Work to get the rims swapped. They look great on the rear of the car. Hopefully Work takes care of this quickly so i am not on spacers for long.

run 225/30/20. that's what i'm running right now. you would want to go with that size. a mild stretch. you wouldnt need to do any fender mods with these up fronts.

genki to the rescue!! 235/30/20 no good?? hehehe.. btw genki 255/30/20 at the rear is it too thin/stretched? the 255 limit is 9.5 inch wheels i believe...i want to go with 275 actually, but i dunno if it will look stretched like the 225 fronts...
