Message:
OK, i want to do things right the first time and have no rubbing. i am planning a 3/5 drop DJM Pro Drop, also 20in rims in the next month. I have no idea what tire size, backspacing will give me no problems. i want to do things right the first time. If anyone has advice and has done it it would be great i don;t think i want to go smaller than a 40 series tire tho if it can be avoided.

Thanks

what's up man. the best bet i can tell you is to get a wide offset towards the outside, so they don't rub the inner shell when turning. you may need to change your bumpstops so they are a little bigger. they twenty's should work killer with the 40 series tire. just don't go with a 45, they will rub. let me know if you need any help. tony
