Chrome or alloy? I think the alloy looks a bit better. Neither would be my first choice, but at least they fully hide the wheel hub.

^^^ yea, its my friends choice. I like them too since no hub is showing. He is going with chrome. He doesnt like too much, just a subtle look.

Honestly you can run any tire size you want since he isn't lowering at all. Tell him get whatever is the cheapest...

225/35/20
255/30/20

235/35/20
265/30/20

245/35/20
275/30/20

I have 245/35 on a 9 wide up front and it rubs, I have 255/35 on 10 wide in the rear and the lips have chewed my tires. I've learned my lesson...roll your fenders

No stretch on the front and barely any on the back
