Here are a few pictures of my car with 20" wheels and Nitto NT555 255/35ZR20 tires. I would like to lower the back to even it with the front, I thought by adding Steeda Sport springs would do it, but I got so much controversy on doing it, I decided to wait.

Well I would go with 275/35/20 which is 1/2" taller than the 255/35/20. That would increase sidewall height off of the rim by 9% and put a little more meat on the wheel. The rims I am looking at are 9.5" wide.

Awwww, its not that bad .... I had 275/35-20's rear and 265/35-20 front and got WAY more attention than I do now 18's and 275/40 front and 205/35 rear with the car lowered 1''.

The more simpleton folks out there on the road seem to LOVE the 20's!

20s can really make the look of the car...a few months back we swapped out some 18 shelby razors for some 20 Shelby Somethings on my friends stang in my driveway....I couldn't believe the difference it made. See below.

Car was lowered with the Eibach Pro-Kit

18 Razors


20 Shelby somethings
