New Updated Rim/Tire Fitment For S Trucks
Submitted by NORCAL SS on Thu, 2007-02-15 06:00.
This chart is made from the experiences I have with the trucks I lowered and put tires on and that still look good not to much wheel well space. Also tire sizes are what I and customers thought looked best on the rims. Not all people might agree on this but most of those who I have helped will agree this chart is fine.

Well this is a chart that should work and help you guys out 6 7 drop and bags here we go. THIS CHART IS FOR THOSE WHO USED SPINDLES AND SPRINGS. THE SPINDLES MOVE THE FRONT TIRE OUT 1/2 INCH.

i wanna put 20's on my s10 (2000 X w/ belltech 2/3drop) and was wondering if i could just put the rims on with no problems with a 4.75 bs with 245/35/20 tires. I don't know too much about this so any helpful info would be appreciated. Thanx Brian.

How tall is the suggested 20" wheel/tire combo for front and rear?
Im going to be bagging my blazer soon and Im doing prework on the front and rear so I can lay and tuck 20s...prework meaning, front fenderwell removal, blowermotor housing sectioning, tubbing the firewall a tad, etc.
I wont be getting my 20"s for a while, so I will be running stocks. My stock rim/tire is about 25" tall. Not sure on the exact ***/** numbers, but I can get them if needed.
I was wondering the height of the 20" wheel/tire so I can get an idea of just how much I need to move things. I have a stock tire on my spare that is 28" tall. Wonder if I can let some air out of it till it sits as high as the 20" you suggest?

I meant to say above that the stock rim is on a lo-pro tire, like 215/65 or something
but thanks though.
so, that is the height of the suggested 20" wheel/tire combo? which would be the better one the 255 or 245? Can I go smaller? just curious
