Default will 20x10 fit in the front ucf10

20x10 with a 35 offset.. for the fronts.. rolling and pulling is not a problem..

the real question is will it clear all the components in the front or else would i have to bang on the inner fender passage like the 240s with extra angle

thanks
tony

oh.. and tire size will prolly be 245

most likely not without a decent bit of pulling and camber, alhtough thats a pretty conservative offset.

why 20s???

im NOT a fan of 20s on the 1st gen, too big for the car.

Unless you're doing a widebody or something really aggressive, dont go 20x10 on the front.

Tony...Angelo?

the reason for the 20s is because of the bodykit.. with it on it is too low.

i currently have 18s and they look small for the car right now.. it look alright without the kit

thanks

ps.. this is not tony angelo

my name is tony pham

There are a lot of nice 1st gen LS' with 20's...I enjoyed them on mine just great. The body can handle them fine proportionally. Here's a pic of one.

i know the car could handle 20s fine.. but my question is

will the front clear a 20x10 +35
i know i would have to roll and pull a lil just like the rear but will it hit anything when turning

It depends on your tire sizes. +35 isn't that aggressive. If you roll and pull it sounds like it should clear.

Just realized that's a 10 in front. Might take some work.

by "handle" im not talking about it "fitting" but rather about how it looks with the rest of the car. its more personal choice than anything else.

i totally agree with what your saying puredrifter.

i personally dont like the 20s look thats why i went with 18s with the stock body
the 20s on the stock body makes the car look like its riding high even though the wheel gap might be gone.

but now that i have the kit it wouldnt matter.. i actually need the car to be higher but the kit will make it look low so its kinda like an illusion where the wheel gap is gone and tucked but the frame of the car will actually sit higher.

does anyone have a car kitted with 20s to show puredrifter what im talking about.

My homeboy is rockin 20" AME's on his first gen Junction Produce LS.



I think the first gen's look dope with 20's but i say 19's look a lot cleaner.

i think 19's look fine on any 1st gen ls...kitted or not...it's just not a BIG car...the 2nd and 3rd gen LS are more suited for 20's but can easily pull off 19's...

here's my LS with a full kit and 19's...

ucf2x with 19's

same car with 20's (kinda hard to see)
