Sorry guys i have some rim questions? for everyone with 20's

Remove this ad
I have recently purchased some 20 inch wheels.............they are 5x114.3........i already know from reading previous threads i need the hub rings to fill the hub right. My question is...............Has anyone with 20's had any serious problems with their suspension or anything else? Thanx in advance.

No problems. 20" Wheels = more harsh ride and you can hear the suspension more, which has to compensate for the lack of cushion with the lower profile tires. I am running 245/30/20 with no problems and no rubbing.

Re: Sorry guys i have some rim questions? for everyone with 20's

I have 20's wrapped in 245/35/20's and they fit fine, but I did however hit a big dip in the road and the rear passenger tire rubbed and skimmed off about 2mm of my sidewall, no major damage done! Other than that, I love em, and the ride is better than I expected.
