Found a nice set of wheels but they are a square setup and look amazing. Im thinking of getting them but only if its possible to reuse my current tires of my current 20" rims.

Here's the spec of the new wheels: Size= 20x10.0 Offset= 20 Center bore= 74.1

would it be possible to re-use my current tires? 255/35/20F & 285/30/20R

would i have to stretch the tires?



Thanks

The front tyre would be stretched. You would need hubcentric rings too.

Thanks for the info but wouldn't it look kinda dumb with the front being streched and the rear not. Maybe i should go with a different tire size in the rear instead of 285 maybe a 265 with a stetch. What do you think?

Question: Would a 305/25 look okay on a 10" wheel?

not sure if 305 would even fit right but Im sure it'll be too square of a set up

Yes you will most likely will switch to 245's instead
