Why don't you give us some more info..like wheel width, application, desired look...etc. This is too basic of an inquiry.

ok, putting on a set of 20x8.5 and a 20x 9.5 on my wife's GS400.  We were thinking of doing a 225/35/20 up front and a 245/35/20 in back.  I'm sure its not a crazy stretch like some run here but again.....keywords "WIFE'S CAR".  We need it to be mild but we do need a stretch to fit the +24 and +25 offset (again, mild compared to most here).


ps, because of all the good things i've read about falken on this site and a couple others, that's why I was looking at the Falkens. They make a 225/30/20 but I think it may be too small of a tire for her to run. :D

they really are... which is fine by me
