295/40/20's Installed With Pics
I dont really care if Legion wants to come bash me for running this size. I have my reasons. This will save my side exhaust from the speed bumps and road kill that has been butchering my car for the past 3 months. I am going with the Roush rear lowering springs to get it as close as possible.
The tires are Nexen Roadian HP Plus. They hook great compared to my Kumho 275/30/20's. I like the tread pattern and they are meaty.
If your gonna bash me take it somewhere else. I really dont care to hear it.
Thanks

Looks bad azz!! Great deal, fat tires for traction, and high enough to get your side exhaust off the ground
Good job man, you have a nice looking car right there!
, I'm directly sponsored by them for car shows.Honestly f **** both of you though, not a single one of the posts had anything to do with the original guy, who I'm quite sure was neither very humble and defenseless while I wasn't talking about him, and I bet he also didn't feel terrible while I continued not to do so, you seem to be mistaken but I spent a really long time putting that huge amount of information for you together.
I'm out of here, the possibility of admiring the pics in this thread is ruined for me.
I don't get why people have to just manufacture crap.
Good choice in tires... man.

Glad you no longer have scraping issues.
I like the beefy tire out back..looks good. Only problem I have with doing so is the fact that that size tire is over 2 inches taller than stock...which changed your rear end gear ratio from lets say stock of 3.55 to around 3.25. I just put in 3.73's and that big of a tire will drop me to 3.43 or so. Now that would suck for me.
So if you were to ever get gears, you'd have to get 4.30's to end up with something close to performance of 4.10's on a stock wheel size.

Actually it is only about 1" more than stock. Stock Diameter is 27.2" with a 235/55/17.
You are right though it will drop you effective gearing. If you did something similar your 3.73's would be more like 3.55's.
Great pics OP. I love 28" tall tires on these cars. It is funny that first pic really looks like an 18" wheel. If I hadnt read the title I would have never guessed it was a 20.
Hey noticed you bought at gary yoeman Ford. I used to go there all the time when I lived in Daytona.

That's one of my favorite Grabbers.
