Default Prokit & 20" wheels, tires.

I'm wondering if those of you that havethe Eiback prokit and 20" wheels have had any problems with, steering, handling,clearance, rubbing in thefender well ect?I'll be purchasing wheels here very soonandinformation you provide will be helpful. Justfor information I will going with20X8.5(Front offset 18 or 28 ) and 20X10 (Rear offset 38). Which off set should I be going with on the front as I dont really understand. Can you also let me know what size tires you are running? I'm thinking about 255/45-20 and 295/40-20 respectively. Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

That tire size will put you an inch bigger on height size so consider that with the drop.

This will help compare tire sizes.

Those tires are pretty tall especially the fronts. Drop the fronts to 255/35 or 255/40.

I have the Sportlines and 20s. You won't fit 295-40s very easily. Go with a 275-35 instead and you'll never have a problem. 255-35 in front as well.

I'm running 255/40/20 fronts,you won't have room to run a 45 with the prokit. I have 275/40 rears and there is plenty of room to go with a 295,
