You're still going to need to avoid potholes at all costs. 20's don't belong on street cars. My coworker wouldn't listen... in the last year he replaced 3 wheels and 4 tires due to potholes.

hey gino did you have to mod your suspension for the 20,s or are you on stock height

Nope,,, 20 x 8.5 225,30,20 and no rub at all full turn and no mods to suspension,,,, though i am upgrading to stainless steel brake lines and rotors and pads,,, also 20 x 7.5 would be a better rim size,,, still waiting for my 245,30,20's they might rub not sure yet,,
