Thanks to the government I am also going to be able to get the wheels for my stepper, I am going with 18s and 20s, but I was wondering what size tires to use, any pics or info helpful

I guess it depends on how much sidewall you like. For the rears, 295/40/20 is a popular choice for a 20x9.5(or 10) wheel. For the fronts, you could go 245's or 255's with similar sidewall on a 18x8 wheel to maintain the wheel proportions. It all depends on the stance and look that you're after. What wheel did you decide to go with (or is mum the word for now)?
