First 20 inch wheels with low profile tires are going to ride like a road wagon
next unlifted you will have to stay with exact stock wheel width 7 inches and back spacing of 5 inches
next finding a good tire , well its just a bad idea

Well the liberty jets run 245 50 20 along with a lot of other cars. That's the tire size I was gonna go with. But I read somewhere you can run up to 10in wide rim

your going from 16s to 20s... that's a whole lot less rubber...

why exactly do you want to downgrade (upgrade) to 20s?

:ROTFL: 10 inch wide wheels? NO way , unless you only drive striaght
Yes I know the Jets came with 20s but do you also know how many were switched out soon after for a better ride ?

If he likes the look and can deal with the marginal ride, let him do it. Not everyone wheels or has intentions to go offroad so more power too him.

Agree to a point
but 10 inch wide wheels are not doable even lifted
and have heard too many complain about the ride after going to larger wheels on the KJ and KKs
then reversing and going back to 16s
But sure its his nickle I don't GARA :lol: :lol:
just trying.............

Simple solution.................

Buy the 20" jet wheels and use that stock tire size,no need to worry about anything that way.
