is it lowerd any? my "chevy brother" has an s10 with 20's, lowerd 2/3 and his rub horribly, he said he lost 1/4 turn in the wheel with them. so how much of a drop do u have will help determine the tire size

Google "tire size calculator" This tool will allow you to change the size of the rim without changing the overall diameter of the wheel. If you change the overall size your speedo will be off.

Re: Help With Tire Size Please!!!

Hey this is agcneos buddy with the s-10 with 20s on it. for tire size i have 255/35zr20 in goodyear eagle hp plus tires, and they do rub quite a bit, it still drives fine but after a turn and a quarter or so they rub. i do have a 2/3 drop on (spindles and blocks) honestly it is a pain sometimes but i have no trouble driving or anything. pulling into parking spots and whatever takes some time to get used to and get down but its all possible. in the rears the 255/35s are good to use and in the front i forget what it was but i think 235/40 or 235/45 will give you the same tire height but it wont be as wide, eliminating some of the rub issues. my rims themselves are 20x8.5, which is what im going to guess yours is, so if you wanna keep the 20s do some research and i think its 235/45s on the front and the 255/35s in the rear matches up. otherwise go with some good 18s. hope this helps you a bit when it comes down to gettin them dubbies on.
