    On a 20 in Tn, I'd want a 40 series. And like we said awhile back B, you'll need to remove the mid bedside brackets and stretch your north and south brackets with that +20 offset. How low you thinking of going again B?

    4/5 drop is not gonna give you any room for tire on 20's. Well it will but it is going to rub on everything. But this brings us back to Tn roads and low series tires, eeeeek. +35 is going to put a 10" rim offly close to that shock mount. Ill snap a pic of mine here in a few give you an idea

    Pics first, ill edit from the computer and respond accordingly.

    Ok so, as you can see with my 18X9.75 w/ +20 offset I am roughly an inch from the axle mount and shock perch. You inset yourself at +35 and run a 10" rim and you are going to be .5" from all that. Too close for my confort....

    I'd, still do a 275/30/20 on those 9's. But that is just me, I like have meat surrounding my expensive rims and enjoy a decent ride on my daily. Im running a 275/40/18 on my rear and a 255/40/18 on my fronts.


    Ouch a 25 series tire. Ride quality must have been shit. Here scroll to the bottom http://www.generaltire.com/tires/performance/g-max-as-03#Specs . If I were you and ran 8's up front and 9's in the rear I would go 275/30/20 and 255/35/20 and a 3.5/4.5 drop 4/5 is going to be pushing it.

    all great points and thats a little close for me on the rear shocks also and yes when it was aired all the way up it felt like you were just riding on the wheels with no tires.

    ughhhhh no thanks, I did 22X10's with 285/40/22 falkens, rode stiff as the falken side walls are retardedly stiff. Will never go falken after these Generals, these tires are LEGIT.:D

    That one is just with my bear hands as it was the replacement, it was rolled even better before like the other side:(. Used a large channel lock, clothe, and a block of wood since the middle mount is gone. Nothing for a bat to push against if you wanted to do it the old school way.

    Anyone ever notice that the passenger side rear wheel pushes out a lil more than the driver side I noticed it slightly before but now I dropped the back more its really noticle the driver side tucks like a champ and the passanger doesn't sit as inside
    I don't feel like fucking up one side fender to make it look even I'm not sure if I should swap the leafs (right to left left to right) it bothers.me becsue it makes the driver side look lower though it isn't just the way the tire is sitting
    Lmk if you guys know a simple way to fix it if I don't come up with a solution
