20x10 +40 and 4 inch lip ? gotta see this. pics please.

as for your size, go with 245 35 20 and 255 35 20. Common, cheap and easy to find sizes. You have a lot of room to play with so mind as well fill em out.

why did u go with such high offset ?

I prefer shorter tires on 20s... 255/35-20 is 27.0" tall versus your stock tires
in the neighborhood of 25.5"

How about using 225/35-20 + 255/30-20. You can get these in the Toyo Proxes 4,
they'll have a nice mild stretch to them. I did this on a new Audi TT and it came
out pretty sweet.

I just think the lower-profile tires would look better and get the car lower.
