those of us that are riding 20s - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

staggerd86c-10 · 07-09-2008, 11:45 AM

i would like to know the size tires you guys out there with 20's are running, right now my tires are way to low of a profile, 255/30 front 305/25 rear. im thinking about doing 255/35 front and 305/35 rear anyone running this set up and if you have some pictures of trucks with 20's and the tire size they are running.

smashingchuck · 07-09-2008, 12:11 PM

here's mine, although I can't say that I am riding on them as my truck is no where near completion. Fronts are 245/35/20 on a 20x8.5, rears are 295/40/20 on 20x10.

I think you'll like the prices on these two sizes as well

spr85gmc · 07-09-2008, 05:20 PM

got better pics too much shadow

CLASSIC87' · 07-09-2008, 07:05 PM

Here's mine and the info:
Front:
20X8 w/5''BS and 255/40/20
Rear:
20x10 w/5.25''BS and 295/40/20

**N2TRUX** · 07-09-2008, 11:03 PM

Here's Scoti's 74 with his new Coys-
20x8.5" w/5.25" BS & 255-40 Toyo Proxes
20x10" w/5.50" BS & 295-40 Toyo's

jrsmith_2010 · 07-09-2008, 11:16 PM

i just bought 245/35/20s, but somehow the dumbasses at the web site sent me 2 20s and 2 18s!

but 245/35/20 are the right ones for me

Is that just the front or did you plan to run those on all four corners?

jrsmith_2010 · 07-09-2008, 11:34 PM

all 4 corners

GMBowtie79 · 07-10-2008, 01:35 AM

Not a pickup but there 20x8.5 all the way around with 245-40-20 in front and 265-50-20 in back

80FOUR · 07-10-2008, 02:38 AM

I've ordered and am waiting on my 20"x8.5" coys with 255/40/20 all the way around. I"ll post pics soon hopefully

staggerd86c-10 · 07-10-2008, 08:19 AM

anyone running 305/35/20 in the rears? and maybe a 255/35/20 front? thats the combination i was planning on running but im not sure if it will look right, i love the way those 295/40/20 look in the back how much differnece would their be to go wider with a lower profile?

I have 315/35/20 on a 20x12 in the rear.

CLASSIC87' · 07-10-2008, 08:26 AM

They are going to be a little shorter and your going to have more "bulge"... type in the deminsions here and you'll see the difference:http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html

smashingchuck · 07-10-2008, 10:45 AM

I would run the 255/35/20 in the front - they make the tire look nice and square on the rim. I already had the 245's which is why I am running them. Here is a little better picture (but not much) of the sidewalls on my set up.

C-10volvo · 07-10-2008, 02:36 PM

255/45/20 on forged Centerline 20x8 in front
275/45/20 20x9 on Toyo's for the rear

staggerd86c-10 · 07-11-2008, 08:42 AM

thats a good looking truck that body line is straight as an arrow. i would like to see some more pics of the truck if you have any

gafiredog · 07-12-2008, 04:40 PM

i'm sorry to sound stupid guys, but what are coys ?

GMBowtie79 · 07-12-2008, 04:48 PM

Coys are the rims that are on the red truck in post #5 of this thread.

gafiredog · 07-12-2008, 04:53 PM

thanks for the info gmbowtie79

GMBowtie79 · 07-12-2008, 10:04 PM

gafiredog · 07-13-2008, 07:48 AM

Hard to believe they are under $200 in 17", and only $400 in 20" chrome. They are pretty much made on special order basis, right?

considering they are made in China and only in a few offsets, I would have to say no.

jrsmith_2010 · 07-13-2008, 12:07 AM

StepinNJ · 07-18-2008, 07:26 AM
