Just wanted to see if anyone is using 20X9 wheels on there LX? I think the popular choice is 8.5. If you are please provide a pic so I can figure out what it looks like. I would be using this size all the way around. Also, will the specs of this wheel work good on the Magnum?
Wheel Offset: +15mm
Weight: 40.5 lbs.
Bolt Pattern: 5-115
They are recommending this tire size:
Recommended Tire Size: 245/45-20
But I want more meat in the rear was thinking of 255/45-20
What does everyone think?

Should be alright. If you want meat on the back, you could go with a 275/50/20 like I did.:D

Mine are 20x9, but I went with about the skinniest tires in the interest of saving SOME weight; my wheels are heavy.

On the rear, you can safely squeeze the 275/40-20 size tire on the 20x9" wheel without any rubbing problems with the 15mm offset. Don't go any narrower on the wheel, however, if you choose the 275mm width tire.
I saw some MKW wheels in the 20x9" size the other day on a Magnum that looked rather nice. I don't know whether they're the correct 5-115 bolt pattern that we should use or the wrong 5-114.3 bolt pattern that we should avoid, though.
