I need some wheel/tire size help...

I decided to go with 20s on my truck instead of 15s.... I know I will regret it but I have to be stupid.


I am thinking about the c-55 20x8. Check 'em out!

My truck has drop spindles in the front and hanger/shackles in the back.
I just dont know what will fit.

What backspacing do I need?

What size tire?

definatley grey! My truck is the oh so contraversial "satin black" and the wheels are a dark grey color so I think it will match nicely.

From what I can tell this is the setup I will need.
20x8 5x5 5.2" backspacing with a P275/45R-20 tire.

What do yall think? Will that setup fit?

I'm new to the 20s

Check out THIS thread and maybe shoot pcmcobra a PM. I know the widths are different but maybe you guys can figure it out.
