Thanks. I thought about getting a set of their wheels when I was looking at getting my first set of wheels. Post some pics when you get them on.

As justink said they will fit, what it comes down to is the rubber you plan on fitting them with...

Make sure you post a pic, as new rims are on my shortlist of upgrades, and these are on my list of possibles.

Well I ran 235s and wish I would have ran something smaller so 225s as Justink mentioned would be ideal...I am running 215s on my 20x8.5s and find I rub just ever so slightly when hitting a super hard bump (just the other day dangit), but the 225s should work perfectly
