The problem is not if they will fit, its that you will put wheels with out lowering it first. Once you see the 20s at stock height...you will be shopping for a drop asap. If you thought the stock height with the stock wheels was high, you haven't seen 4x4 yet. A nice drop and wheels will do wonders, just do it right the first time, trust me. If you can't do both at the same time, do the drop first then the 20s. Good luck!

And do coilover if you can... trust me, if you plan for future mods, you will like the flexibility of coilovers. I'm currently on eibach and bilstien.

Yup, what these guys said! It will work although the front tires are a little wide; the looks will be the problem.

depends on the off set in the rear.

i was running 255/30/20 on a +31 offset BF goodrich tire, and every big bump or so on the freeway or added weight in the rear, the tries would rub the inner fender, you may have to cut the rear fender. At that time i was running my factory suspension.
