Redundant Fitment Question

[dash.90]

Seems like many people have or get 255/45/20's. I also have that tire size and wanted to get new rims, the ones I liked were KMC from carid.com that are 20 x 8.5 .. Those should fit correct? I matched them with tires they also have to see and the only sizes they show are 245/45/20s

Be VERY careful with tire size on the SHO. ESPECIALLY after our tune...traction is a mother at 255/45. IMHO if you are going to step down in size go stickier and lower the car! We recommend the H&R lowering springs.

What's your opinion on the Megan coilovers? TIA

Well wait no, Im sticking to 20s and moving up to 255/45, how is that going down?

I thought you were talking about 255/45 TO 245/45...which is 1/2" thinner. My bad, I misread. I have like 11 forums going in my browser ATM.

True coilovers if you're not racing are a little overkill. I LIKE THEM, but I'm pretty "particular" lol about how I like my ride and ride height.

Plenty of people running the 255s on the 20" rims without any trouble, some of them are on H&Rs, I believe.  bpd Mike runs them with his Megan coilovers, I believe.  Research and use a tire appropriate to your application & driving style.  Lots of good tires to choose from, including Michelin Pilot SS, Continental DWS, General GMax, Pirelli Cinturato P7, Hankook Ventus V12 etc.

The key part of your post is....RESEARCH!

Yah man I was gonna say what are you talking about lol. Made me double check everything cause I just bought some Michelin pilots. Great grip on those.
I personally like stock height, especially cause my exhaust seems to sit kinda low
