tires for 20" wheels
Im looking for a maximum set of tires of 28" diameter for a 20x8.5 front and a 20x10 rear for a truck with a 4.5/7 drop.
What would everyone recommend? It seems that Toyo is one of the few companies i have found that has tires in these sizes. Which would be like a 255/40-20 and a 285/40-20. The rear can be a little taller if need be |

Re: tires for 20" wheels
I would go with the Nitto INVO. I bought some for my 20" Coys for my 68 Impala. They look nice and are a good price. I have 295/35/20 for the back. (Actually havent driven on them yet)

Re: tires for 20" wheels
shopkin72... what are the specs on the tires? For most brands to locate a matching set of 245/40 or 255/40 with a 295/40 you are hit and miss. Either combo, IMO, looks fitting.

Re: tires for 20" wheels
I had originally ordered a 305/25/20, but the profile was too low for my heavy car. So I got these instead. Will probably go with 245/40/20 for the fronts.
