I just had my wheels and tires mounted yesterday. Stingray III and 285/50/20 GTII. Stock height. I need to at least remove the rear blocks, but they look good. Tires fit nice and ride and handle pretty good. I need to get a weight off of my old 17's to find out what the difference is.

I can vouch for the Hankook Ventus RH06's...I've got 275/55-20's and they are GREAT !!!, wet traction is SOOOOOO much better than the Goodyear's I had before and there is ABSOLUTLY NO comparison between the two when the roads are dry.....I could spin the GT-II's easily but the Hankooks grip HARD !!!

I hear the tracion is no good on these tires which I agree with but being my first set of 20s and having a one-legger I cannot say for sure.
Are those 275/45/20 on 8" rims? Please let me know. Fit ok? THey look good .
