40 Series on 20's? Anyone?

Tried looking around, I a couple who were running 255/40/20 in the rear. I understand there's going to be those who flame and say what's the point or it would look stupid but I really don't think it would... I like the thicker tires especially here in the Midwest with the harsher roads. I would still like tuck and get a decent stance and stretch. Has anyone else played with 40 series tires? If so, what did you use for front and rear and if you have pictures that'd be awesome. Thanks!

I'm one of the few that are lowered and running 40 series on here, but I'm on 19s. 225/40F and 245/40R I really like the look and ride.

Hey I'm interested in running a similar set up and had a few ?s. was wondering how much your dropped and if you had any issues running your tires by 40? Also what offset are your rims? Thanks

I'm dropped right at 3" and have very few issues in daily driving. I used to drive a lot more than I do now and wanted to keep the 40's for ride comfort.

Wheel specs
F-19X8.5" +23 (with a 15mm spacer)
R-19X9.5 +33 (with a 5mm spacer)
