I use AMF Tire, they are in Boca off of 20th st between 2nd and Dixie. I have been using them for years. They do awesome work, and specialize in high performance cars. They even do on the car high speed balancing
They are NOT the cheapest place, but they are probably the best place in the area. My famaily and friends all bring their cars there.
Hope this helps

If you are buying new rims, can't you get your first set of tires from the same place? Will they give you a package price? It's just a thought...

I'm sorry our deal fell through. I wish I could have helped you out. I'd search around locally for a used tire place. The chances of having 20s is doubtful, but for the money you would save...it's worth a shot. That's what I'm going to do before I buy another set of tires in the rear.

I've got a hookup in Orlando, but that won't help you. Does Tirerack.com have what you need?

Good 20 inch tires aren't going to be cheap. The deal on Ebay seems pretty good, assuming it doesn't increase substantially at the end of the auction.

Don't forget, the tires are the only things connecting your car to the road.
I would not get inexpensive tires. Do the research on tirerack and car and driver and try to get the top rated tires.
There is a difference.
