I'm also interested in the same and was debating on making a post. Anyone know of tire sizes for 20" that would look good and have a good ride with the stock shocks/wheel setup? And of course, no rubbing in the wheel wells or braking parts as trickshot noted.

These are my 20's and they do not rub, even with 20 x 11's on the back. They've been on my sc for 5 years. They are a little rough on the ride which is why they are up for sale. After two back surgeries I need a much smoother ride.

thx solman for the reply nice how lex can fit 20 x11 in the rear. im assuming that your lex isnt lowered as well right. how about your fronts they 20 x 8 or 9 , also what tire profile did u go with ? I forgot to state that my car is lowered as well. i was thinking maybe going with 19 x9 in front and 19x10 in the rear cus my car is lowered, i just dont want it to rub especially when turning . Shawnok if you car isnt lowered like Solman said i think 20 will work for u if u wanted big wheels thxs guys for replies

OK, sorry guys. I'm a little new at this... i understand the tire size as 20" but what does x 9, x 10 mean? Is that the offset? What exactly is offset? Sorry, I feel moronic for asking. I just know tires sizes as the usual cross section/aspect/rim size.

9 or 10 means how wide tire is.

Check the chart out for correct offset and width of the rim you want to purchase.
