im looking for 18" rims and i cant find nothing that would fit. They told me 20" rims wouldnt fit unless i got low profile tires but i dont want low profile tires. Anyone know anything? I really want 20"s but dont want the low profile tires. Is there a mid range tire thats not full size or low? I want some mad chromed out rims but cant find any that will fit.

What ever you do. The outside max tire diameter is 30". Anythign bigger then that and you will need 2" of lift.
Have you gone to tire manufactures and looked at their tire specs?

lift?!? ive seen many bagged and bodydroped s-dimes laid out on 20's. a couple even had 22's.

but i know what you're getting at. just pay close attention to backspacing and offset. you will need to get lower profile tires, though. if you dont want the low-pros, then go with 18's. you'll get lots of chrome, but not as harsh a ride as the 20's
