    Custom Wheels and Tires

    Has anyone purchased a Wheel package from this place? http://www.custom-wheels-car-rims.com/CarSearchModule.cfm
    Looks like they offer great deals.. I notice that are pushing the "275" size tires on most of there rims. I am pretty much new to this tire thing but isn't the 245 size more popular with the 20" rims? I deffinitely want to stay with a 20 inch rim with a 45 series tire.. This car is my everyday driver so I don't want to get too crazy. Is there a big difference between 245 and 275?

    No really, the tire diameter difference is right about 1" if both are 45 series tires.
    I know that Cucamonga Red was running 275's, but I'm not sure on the series and he needed to grind down the upper a-arm stud for clearance reasons during braking and very high speeds.

    The correct sizes are:

    245/45-20 (front & rear)
    255/45-20 (front & rear)
    265/45-20 (front & rear)
    275/40-20 (front & rear)
    285/40-20 (rear)
    295/40-20 (rear)
