buy the spacers, and a 215 tire. I don't think they'll stick out that much, prolly won't even be noticeable. But if they stick out too much get the stainless steel wheel well trim from the site on here under all parts(just under new posts or something on our menu) they're only about $100 and stick out another 1/2 inch then our regular fenders. I wouldn't get rid of the rims and rubber if you can make it work, and i think you should be able to get it all together by the time the weather starts warming up.

i think you're nuts. sell the wheels and do it right. or, do what formula nerd said and use real fender flares that get molded in. but the smartest thing to do would be to sell the wheels and buy ones made for the car.

i dont think there is a 20" tire that is only 215 wide, but even if there was, he'd still be hosed because the rims is 8.5" wide.

so you guys are tellin me to see the rims and buy 20's that will fit with no mods right?

well can you guys help me out to the right kinda rim and tire that will fit right with no mods.

if you can do that, that would be prefect. im gonna start making flyers

Offset is +40
if that helps

You could also roll out the fenders so that they would cover up the tire. That is, if you have body experience or you know anybody that does have experience.

Guys i talked to the company they said they will trade me rims that will fit. they have these for sale.

do you guys know if they will fit?? they are 20X7.5

thanks alot

shouldn't have posted that link, now i have to buy them!!, all thespecs seem right...good lookin rim.

I hope your right, because i would not have to go thought with all this again. im gonna wait 2 here more people post then i will give them a call..
Thanks alot

those should fit...it doesnt say the exact offset, but i'd bet money on them being fine.

what kinda tires would i need to get with them??

thanks

i don't think 235's would fit. your best bet is to take your car with you when you're getting the rims and tires, and get them to try em on readaway, that's what they did with mine and they saw the 235s hit the struts and springs, so they just put narrower tires on and they fit fine. I think i got 225/s on now.

Hey "turtles ride" the company is in stockton California. im in shreveport LA, will you please tell me the tire size and rim size it would help me so much.

thanks alot.

Aftermath Alero has 225/35/20 on his.

you can get 225/30/20 BFG g-force T/A KDW tires from tirerack for $299 each special (normal are $350). Your speedomter will be correct.

Or

You can get the Nitto's NT555 225/35/20 for $165 each from tires.com (discount tire direct). But your speedomoter will be 5-7 mph off, when your reading 60 mph on the speedo; your really going 65-67 mph. I know.. I had a cop follow me and I had a friend car's driving side by side to compare.

So $1200 plus shipping for tires for the BFG or $700 for the nitto's more or less.

So , if i get that rim i posted with the 225 35 20 tires i will be good to go right???

sorry just makin sure dont want to buy something that wont fit

thanks
