Default 19 v 20's?

for those who have ran both 19s and 20s on their sc
are 20s too big to ride on? or will fender roll be the answer to all
any input would be appreciated
looking to put 20x9 front and 20x11 rear with a vertex kit
but thinking i should just some 19's instead

18 is perfect with stock, 19 is perfect for bodykit, and 20 is good for widebody

I have 19x9.5 on the rear of my Sc and they are just barely in there with the fenders rolled and all.. 265/35 (also lowered 2 1/2inches)

20x11 will need overfenders. Will you be on airbags?

Nice choice indeed! The Vertex kit on 20 X 9 and 20 X 11 would look awesome! I should know since that's my set up..

20 X 11 need over fenders??? I'm on Tein CS Coilovers. It's all about proper fitment and the correct offset for your wheels..






As a matter of fact my boy's SC //LRD, in the pic below had 20 X 11.5 in the rear!

when I am buying wheels, I consider the tire. Oklahoma is not known for their awezum roads, so I require some sidewall to smooth things out. maximum I would go is 18, but I think way different than most (I also like the look of some sidewall, vs. the rubber band tires on larger wheels)

18's if you're pre-97 and no kit
19's 97+
20's body kit

Wheel diameter is not the answer for rubbing issues, please research offset.

I agree. Oklahoma roads are horrible unless you still ride on your stock 16"s. Since Texas has bad roads too, I'd get 19"s.
