I need some CHEAP 20's with CHEAP tires...any ideas?

I'm looking for 20x9½" rims, for a pretty good deal. I have about $1400 to spend, and I'm trying to get rims AND tires...I'd like the OD to be 27-28"
Any ideas?

why do you HAVE to find 20s? why not save your money a little longer and buy something new/better quality?

Probably the cheapest 20 out there are the Goodyear Eagle GT II's at $136.00. The smallest one they make is a 275/45/20. It's a great tire, but it might be to tall at 29.8".

The cheapest 20" wheel you will find new is probably one of the Eagle wheels. You might try contacting bagged74 and see if he still has these for sale-20" wheels for sale

Those should tuck but not certain. The biggest BS they offer stick out about 1" on the 88-98's.

Also I agree about the eagles and also the Goodyear Ultra Plus is around $180 per tire.

www.TheRimShop.com is selling 20" Eagle 212's for $850 a set. I won't be buying new wheels as soon as I thought, otherwise I would sell mine to you.

Actually, what I was wanting WAS a set of the 212's in 18 or 20's. $850 for 20" sounds pretty fair too...
Rolf,
My current rims/tires are pending sale to a friend of mine. He said he wanted some nice 17's for his bagged 66 Wildcat, so I offered mine for $1200 and he said he'd let me know, but most likely wanted them.

Hey Tim, are you still looking for wheels? I have my rims for sale, they have about 500 miles on the rims since I got them. I need something with a lil bit different offset for the front. How about $1 a mile + shipping.
