20 inch rims, PS2?

Will 255 35 20 fit on the front without rubbing? I know it will fit in the rear. Will I need a small wheel spacer. Anyone running this size tire. The 255 width is what is scaring me.(97 max, lower, eibach/koni)

Where is the best place to stash the PS2. It is currently under the passenger seat. But it is under there really tight, and when someone sits there they are pressing down on it. The PS2 was making a weird sound like it was struggling to spin. I then kicked my friend out my car.(He isn't even fat).

What voltage converter box are you guys using to power the PS2. I have a small one and notice that it cut off 2 times while I was playing. I had to go into the trunk and switch it off and back on. Maybe this is to small to power the PS2. Thanks to all who Holla Back.

In the front, sure in the back you can rack 265 back there.

Thanks, wope I have 245 40 18 ins chrome now, and they slitly rub on the drivers when you cut the wheel completly to the right. Your wheels look nice. How is the ride with the dubs? Is your car lowered?
Will 245 35 20 rub also. The rims I trying to buy are CRAZY. I'm keeping my 18 to switch back and forth. NY streets are real.

Any info the two PS2 questions?
Thanks

Re: 20 inch rims, PS2?

I had to roll the rear fenders for it not to rub in the back. The front will onmly rub under hard cornering. I dropped my car like 3 inches so I guess it'll rub less for you if you're gonna drop it less.

Wikidbwoy, I have the same vault rims in 18ins.They look mean. Are you running coilovers. Hot picture. I read you
profile, do you have candy paint on that thing. If so how
much did it cost? I have family down south and I want to candy my joint in the near future.

I had 255/35/20 in the front when I had my Lexani Krystals. They did not rub when lowered 1.25inches, however, when you cut the wheel all the way to the left or the right (i.e. making a U-Turn), they will rub a little. I found that when you take it easy around turns and when backing out of parking spots, if you go slowly, you'll be fine.

Also, to answer another question, the ride on 20's is really no different than the ride on stock 16" SE wheels. I had 16" SE wheels on my maxima for about 8 months before I threw a set of 18" Niche Bella's, and then a set of 20" Lexani's, and I really could not tell a drastic difference. The performance sufferes BIG TIME, but other than that, it's really not a noticable difference. You have to remember, when you're rolling on dubs, you're not trying to go that fast anyway.

Has anyone ever had 234/40-18. I'm trying to figure out if I will have too much of a wheel gap in the front. I have 245/40 right now.
