I just bought a set of 20's and will be getting tires tomorrow. I will be running 245/35 on the front and 255/35 on the back. What tires do y'all recommend? I know you get what you pay for buy I was wanting to spend tops $140 a tire. anyone?

Do you like them?

and does anyone with a 3'' drop up front run a 255/35? I was going to go 245/35 because I was scared of rubbing but I would rather go 255/35 up front

I had 255's but they rubbed when I turned the wheel to lock so I stepped down to 245/'s. One thing about 20's you have to consider what you will do for a spare of a simulator size.

you are going to have a huge gap in the wheel well

I am running a 255/35/20 on a 5/6 with minimum gap

275/45/20 on 2/3 drop in case you want to see the difference

I went with Duro DP8100, I think I paid around $350 for all 4 shipped

they are a little cheaper the most but I have never had a problem with them

What offset were those wheels with the 275/45/20 and did you have any rub with the 2/3 drop? Also, 2WD or 4WD?

edit: What was the width of the 20" rim? 9"?

I am information gathering for my 20" rims if you give me good news. LOL!

Not sure on the offset but I know they were 20x9.5 on Z85 2WD for the 275/45 and only rubbed at full turn. 20x9 on the 255/35 and only rubbed at full turn but I have to cut the plastic out of the wheel wells
