Well just traded the 99 DeVille for an 06 STS. I look so good in this car...hehehe
So guyz, and I havent seen this yet on here, what are the widest 20" tires I can put on the STS?
Ive seen where peeps are using 245/40/20 but thats narrower than the stock tire.
Could I go wider with a 19" than a 20"?
And I would guess an 8" wheel?
Hoping for responses and thanks.

I too am putting 20" wheels on my 2005 STS. I like the Foose wheels, or one or two Dub wheels. I need to know can I run 245 on the front and 265 on the rear. Let me know what you come up with. Take care

Hey guys,
I did a 2005 STS V6 with 20x8.5 +35 offset wheels and 255/35/20 tires and there was plenty of room left for additional clearance.
If you go with a 19" wheel, these cars will comfortably fit a 19x9.5 wheel in the rear with no problems. A 275/30/19 will work with this setup in the rear.
Depending on what particular STS you have, some have the capability of fitting a 275/30/20 in the rear. Of course, making this rear 20" fitment work correctly will require you to purchase wheels with the correct offsets and wheel width in the rear.
Shoot me a PM or email so we can talk more about what specific cars you guys have and what will work correctly with your particular cars.
