Some input on this please... (Wheel and Tire Info)
I am buying tires for my 20" inch wheels 8.5 all around. I just want to know if there is going to be any difference if I get 245 30 20 as to 225 35 20 besides the odometer being a little off. Can anything else go wrong? Suspension,etc.? I'm guessing the 245 will have better traction as they are wider?

Yes, expect a harder ride the lower the profile....also, if the ride is harder this means your struts, suspension, tire sensors, stereo, bolts, (you get the idea) will take a beating.. the sidewall provides spring which helps soften the ride.

But I notice majority of people choose 245 30 as to 225 35. WHy is that? Also the 225 35 will not rub will it? I have stock suspension.

What stock wheels do you have? There were a few different wheels offered, so depending on which ones you currently have, or if you have a RWD vs AWD, it's difficult to confirm the offset. If you take the wheels off, it should be engraved on the inside of the spokes (most likely). Post a picture of your car or the wheels you have and we can try to help.
