Go ahead and try it but if you come back and say it looks funny I'll just be here to say that I told you so haha. When you get into those bigger diameter wheels you will lose a little bit of ride softness, and there's really not a lot you can do about it except to suck it up. Just keep in mind that your overall wheel/tire diameter will be about an inch and a half greater than stock in the rear and about an inch greater up front.

i have a gold 95 sc300
1. for me price doesn't matter, i've been saving up for this build for a long time so i got well over a grand to spend on rims
2. if i have to roll the fenders i'll do so i just want some good looking rims on my 300 once i get my origin body kit. black on black, caz im getting the car wrapped with matt black
4. i was hoping to get some rims with a nice lip. but so far i haven't found anything i like or what seems to fit. as you've put it. to be honest i love the stretched look just cas i personally think it looks bad ***
i respect the advice that your giving me, don't get me wrong, and yes im very newb when it comes to car's,wheels, and parts but i know what i like and if it's on the menu i want it. regardless of how much it may cost me.
btw thanks for the help and the input really appreciate it
btw if you look at bender 25's sc300 it's a perfect example of what im going for... but again more sporty and less cholo looking. check out boss rim 333 and 328 and you'll know what i mean that kind of look. btw heres the link to bender25's sc300

i am actually leaning towards the brand new and improved continental tire, extreme contract DWS. they are a great all season tire that performs well in wet conditions, and they seem to stretch better as well. has anyone ever actually tried these tires? i actually love the tread design a lot

so i need some advise on tires... sc400 dropped about an inch, 20x8.5 and 20x10 +35 all around. what is the biggest tire i can put on this. by big i mean overall hight so the car runs a bit smoother
edit: fenders are rolled but im not pulling.

Hey guys what would be the best tire sizes to run on Front 19x9 +20 offset, Rear 19x10 +20 offset wheels? I will be rolling my front and rear fenders. What tire sizes will give me the best stretch to clear my rolled fenders? I already have a pair of 255/35/19 Toyo T1Rs...would these be ok for my rear setup? Thanks!
