Neeema, you cannot receive PM's because you are a new member I think, so I can't reply to your offer. I can do your offer plus shipping, which is $53.

What wheels were these fitted to? Lowered? Any fitment or rubbing issues?

They were fitted on VOLK G2 20x9 and 20x11, not lowered. Fitment was fine, however fronts did rub a little on fender linings at full lock, rubbed through for a bit then eventually stopped.

I have the same size wheels. What size were the fronts? Currently running 245/30/20 on H&R springs but going to OEM springs soon so I can try to fit 255/30/30. Any issues with the rear tires being so much bigger than stock in overall diameter?

fronts were 265/30-20, rubbing at full lock both ways. If you do not want rubbing I would not recommend going any bigger than 255/30-20, and that is cutting it close, there is barely any clearance as is in the front, it all depends on the wheel offset though. The stock front diameter is 25.8", 255/30-20 is 26.0" diameter, it's also 10 mm wider, both of those combined will bring it super close to rubbing when turning if not just barely touch. I've never had that size on but that's what I would guess.

rear tires bigger than stock was no issue, but it essentially makes the gear longer and slows down the car a bit (but also gives you more top end...). I only got them because I wanted a larger sidewall for traction purposes and didn't like the ride of the low profile 25 tires. Now I have 25 profile tires which weigh less, smaller diameter, but I lose traction and the ride is not as cushy as it was before. Going over a manhole on the street you can really feel it, almost feels like the rim is bending everytime. So it is just a tradeoff in performance. My next wheels are 19's, best all around size for looks and performance.

Hmm, I guess I'll go with 255/30/20 on my fronts next. I hear you on the 25 profiles, I had a lot of traction problems with 295/25/20, but that was mostly resolved by going to 305/25/20. I was thinking about trying 315/25/20 next time, since that's what a buddy of mine runs and it would bring me very close to stock diameter, but it looks like I'll have to consider 295/30/20 as well. If I hadn't just bought a new set of rears, I'd pick yours up.

Thanks for all your help. Best of luck with sale.

can you even fit 315's in the back without rubbing?

Buddy has his dropped on Dinan springs, but it fits just fine with no rubbing. I'm going to OEM springs, so it would be even easier. OD is actually smaller than stock.
