thanks all for the vote of

20's were ordered should rec in 2 weeks ( i pray)

getting the rear 20x11 to fit and clear my brakes and not hit on the inside was a trying exp .... and still yield a 3.75in lip


now trying to decide should i do a 295/25/20 for a slightly strechted look or do 305/25/20 for a more straight up and down look

i am going with the conti sport 3 ( man do i love these tires) and they tend to be fat which is why i am leaning towards the 295 to further match the 245/30 up front look on the 20x9 rim


adrian can you post up your tire sizes please so i can compare looks

how about tire sizes i am thinking of doing 245/30/20 front and 295/25/20 rear as opposed to 255/30/20 and 305/25/20 for a very slight strectch look

i am going with conti sport 3 and they tend to fit meaty vs skinny

Ed, I thought the Conti Sport was a loud tire and had a lot of road noise to it? My stock 17's came with continental tires.. I'm i talking about the same thing

That 20x11 tire is going to look nice from the rear..

actually tony the conti sport 2 is what i have on the 19's they are the quiestest i am ever expericened and they are smooth riding and very repsonsive and show no signs of wear

the 20x11 should really look nice on the rear i agree

I have the same tires and experience the same things! Great tires. I have not worked very much with the CS3 yet.
