I'm suprised Daryl hasn't called you yet.Then again he probably can't reach his ear to listen to the phone(head is so swoll up <img border="0" alt="[jester]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_jest.gif" /> )He bought them.I was about to buy some used 18" but decided I would go ahead and get some 20's and get out of the "TEEN CLUB" <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Thats awesome, I know his ride is going to look 100% better now. Now if he could just get rid of those black rims he runs his slicks on. Do you know if he wants to keep his stock alloys or get rid of them?

Heres a few for you.
I have the 275/35/20s in the rear, i can get a pic at ride height for you if you want, i normally drive it pretty close to what a 4/6 would be

LOTs, u have mail. few pics of my set up, do to poor quality and poor wheather lately I havn't any goods pics yet. Hotchkis set up with a 1" block in the back for a slight rake.
- 5" backspace on 20x9.5 -the 275/45 20 sit flush with the fender,
If your running 255/50-17,275 50 17 the hieght should be around 27-28 tall, right? I would think 275/35 20 would be your best bet. Or maybe 255/40-20(28 tall)up front and 275/40 (28.6 tall)for the rear
My thoughts--When I got my 20's which way around (75lbsw/tires) <img border="0" alt="[barf]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" /> , They kick *** handeling but put more wear on the breaks and slowed me down alittle. for the track I have,like you, 16" et streets running on centerline billets but the track has not opened yet. If I could do it over I would of bought 18" light wieght weld evo with 295 45 up front and Nitto drag 30540 18 for the rear.( all around performance street and strip) I only drive my truck in the summer and this would of cost the same as my 20 plus the et streets due to the fact weld are expensive. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

I appreciate the pictures and info.
Creederado, I've thought about going with 18's but I figured I have the stock rims with ET Streets on them for the rear and I'm probably going to buy a set of skinny tall tires for the front when I go to the track. I'm buying a set of centerlines, a new design they just put out. Supposedly they are really light.
OOsilverado, looks like I'm going with the 275/35's. What back spacing do you have?
Thanks!
