76210Guy hope these guys are helping you decide! I know I'm going to be doing the same thing pretty soon. Can't wait either. Also guys thanks
Redliner8 I see that you are talking about the tire size. You didn't say or I didn't see what size wheels other than 20"s. You probaby already have, but check out the thread on wheel sizes from romini. To see how big you can go, when going with 20"s.

Ned, thanks for your help. In the beginning I couldn't tell if you were yelling or just really excited (with all the CAPS) lol I'm glad you mentioned the Continental ExtremeContact DWS because those are the ones I think I'm going to get. They're $192 each and have really good reviews.
Eddy, I think the thread mentions 245/30ZR20, but I remember several people saying that 35 will work and give a softer ride. I'm kind of hoping someone reads this and confirms what I read...

Redliner8 the tire size is all well and good, but if the rim offset isn't right the tires will rub. You can also have the rim too wide, and with the wrong offset, and still have trouble with the tires rubbing. I guess you can do a lot of things to that size tire and still have problems. Again check out romini's thread on rim,offset, and tire size. It could be a costly learning lesson, if one or more of these things aren't right.Good luck on your quest.
