Default Let's See Some C5 Pics With 19/20 Wheels And Tires

Guys,

It's time for new wheels and tires. I'm lowered all the way on stock bolts without cutting the stops, this is about as far as I can go given my daily driving routine.

I would love to reduce the space between the fender and tires some more, but my 1 7/8 ARH and high flow cats wont survive lowering the car anymore.

In an ideal situation I could keep the sidewall height the same and just scale the wheel and tire up.

Of course this will also necessitate a big brake kit to fill up the inside of the wheel.

I know some of you guys have some pretty strong feelings against a 19/20 combo on C5s. Please keep those to yourself for now.

Just out of curiosity has anyone done?

275/40/19
295/35/20

Lets see some 19/20 pics....... and don't forget to post your tire sizes.

Sorry, I forgot the tire sizes. They are 255/35/19 on the front; and 295/30/20 on the rear.
The car is not lowered, at all.
