Great looking wheels, all you need is a drop now. Nice setup! What is the lip size in the front and rear?

daw,

For your next set of tires, look into some Hancook's. Try some 285's and if they rub just get the fenders rolled.

BTW, those are 20" wheels. Breyton Spirit from Tire Rack.
What's the wheel width? I'm guessing 10" or even 10+"??? I like your set up alot but agree 285's may have been the way to go. My 20"s are only 9.5" in the rear so 275s don't stretch so much.

FYI...even if you have enough tire to cover the lip, if you hit a curb they'll still damage the lip so don't feel too bad about the lack of protection.

nice wheels
but what is the size of those tires? seem a bit small im running 275-30-20 in the rear and it does not look that streched..weird..plus your car seems to be higher (seems it has the sport package) so i will deduce the tires you have are 275-25-20?
