I think that a 40 would fit fine. Although it would be tight on bad roads.

There is room for more sidewall if you get 20" wheels with the correct offset but.... I have 20" wheels by 10" wide. If you go that wide then you may have trouble getting a taller sidewall. I would recommend getting a 8.5-9" wide wheel and then you could tuck a taller tire in the wheelwell. The problem is getting the tire tucked up in the wheelwell if you have it 10" wide. The wheels I have, have a +40 mm offset. If you can get a +50 mm offset then I think it is definately possible. I have the full Sportline kit by Eibach. That includes shocks, springs front and rear sway bars. Does this make sense?

Mine are Foose Nitrous, 20x8.5 34 offset in the front and 20x10 45 offset in the rear. I think I can go with 295/40 rears without any immediate issues, again the only concern would be on really bad roads. I know that the Saleens are coming with 275/40/20's all around, but they are only dropped a little over an inch front and rear.

Shaguarama, your wheels are +40mm offset front and rear?


nbk13nw, your wheels are 34mm offset front and 45mm offset in the rear?

I know for a fact that my wheels are a 40mm offset in the rear because I checked many times before buying them. And I'm pretty sure that they're 34-35mm in the front but its not important because there's plenty of room up there.

Here's what the 20" wheels with a 2+" drop look like!

Thanks! I am trying to figure out if I can install 14" brakes on the front without any issues.
