Generals run large. I would stick with hankook and get either a 235/30 or 225/35...

Thanks for the help man. Would i have about the same amount of sidewalk with the 225/35 as I do with my 275/30 rears? I had a 35 profile tire before and it was a lot thicker. I'm just considering to get all 4 new tires because I am not that lowered, with a huge wheel gap, and I'm scraping dangerously.

get a hankook 235/30 and it should have the same stretch as the rears. it will also be a little taller as well.

Ahh another one of these questions.

I've never bought wheels before nor do I know much about them, however this is my situation:

I'm dropped on Eibach Prokits, and I'm interested in purchasing some 20" TSW Cadwells.

I also wanted to get some Nitto NT555's for the tires.

Will this option work? Will I need to roll fenders, get camber kits, etc or do anything besides just buy the wheels and tires and slap them on?

Thanks

if you want to maintain tire life, get camber kits. and if you do get camber kits, you'll need to roll your fenders.

20mm all around if you dont want to roll fenders

Also, for the tires: Which size for the tires would I need front and back?

The rims are staggered fitment, 20x8.5 front, and 20x10 rear.

Edit: Discount Tire says that if I get the staggered fitment that the rear wheels will stick out way too far and may cause damage to the fenders or something. Is this true or does this person just not know what they're talking about? I really want to get the staggered fitment, he is suggesting getting the 8.5's all the way around.
