Lowered On 20's? Post Your Pics!

The last two silver cars look good.

Thanks!

+1, car looks awesome 01cav! Whats your tire setup?

Thanks, the tires are Nitto NT555 255/35ZR20 in the front and Nitto NT555 285/30ZR20 in the rear.

Thanks for the compliments they're really appreciated!

I got 295's on all 4 corners on 20x10.5 vossen cv7's.

Why do some people go 35 up front and 30 in back? Why not 30-30 or 35-35?

 

[Jucostud]

Because they want the rear the same size as the front

To get close to the same side wall height front to rear when you are running different widths. The second number in tire size gets at side wall as a ratio of tire width.

For a 255/35 the sidewall height is 0.35 * 255 = 89.25
For a 285/30 the sidewall height is 0.30 * 285 = 85.5

If the rear wear a 285/35 the sidewall would be 0.35*285=99.75
You'd be almost an inch more in total tire diameter versus a 255/35.

Do you know your offset or backspacing?
Just wondering how you squeeze 295s up front... lol

It's not that hard lol. I had 285s upfront and had tons of room on my 07

With what kind of wheels? With my 275s, I have less than 1" clearance between the tire sidewall and strut body.

Now is a good time to learn offsets

I have 20x10.5's with +45. I also run a 7/16 spacer on the front with about -2 degrees camber. I fit my 20x10's with +40 fine with no spacers. I think a 20x10 +35 would be perfect.

Here is 2 more pics of my setup...

20x9, 20x10 on FRPP P springs

Wow, nice! This is so unique and well done without being over-the-top. I lovvvvve that rare interior and the stripes to match. Looks great with the gunmetal wheels.

Thanks ChrisGT, I've tried to get an aggressive look without going too far. The springs give me a 1 inch drop, with the tires staggered 255/35 in front and 285/35 out back helped get the stance I was going for.

Alright I've been holding out for a while with my car so here it is. I bought it back in 2009 bone stock besides the tinted windows.

Those tsw's look good!

Cool thanks

Car looks good. What kind of suspension are you using?
