Vectra's/Signums running 20" wheels

[rob1981]

Hi all, been running 19"s on my Signum first a set of VXR wheels (they went when i sold my Astra vxr) and then a set of bbs lm reps. The reps are looking a little worse for wear and as im a bit anal i feel its time for a change. I can get a set of 20" x 9 et 35 wheels for a very good price brand new so might take a punt. Just wondering what size rubber i should run as not to get rubbing. I was thinking 245/35 or maybe 245/30? Any help would be great.Regards, Rob

Its got to be 30s as 35s will rub i have 245x30x20 on mine during better weather and 235x40x18 ATM

One of the tyre sites has a tyre compatability calculator, stick in your existing tyre details and your proposed details, it will tell you the differences in speedo reading, gearing etc.

Can't imagine what the ride on 20's would be like with 30 profile tyres knowing what 19's are like
