I upgraded my wheels with 20" all around from Discount Tires. My local dealer worked with me to keep the same "rake' rear to front as the 20" to 19". I now don't worry about finding a 19" tires. Thanks to Discount Tire.
My SSR: 05 6 speed black has a K&n cold air kit descreened and Diablo tuner & Eric's hood

Pictures brand and size would be nice. How do you like them ???
Ok here are the tires I am running on my SSR with 20s front and rear.
front - 275/40/20 Hankook Ventus ST
rear - 275/45/20 Road Hugger FRT with these the front end has a lighter feel or
for the same feel as orginal go with 285/50/20 on rear. I picked tire size over brand. These brands were in stock at the time I bought.
OK, maybe I missed something....but, where are the Toyo's? I'm running them now and I got them thru my local Discount Tire......
Our stores can order the Toyo brand for you. We don't mail order them so I don't have much information on them. What sizes and what tread are you running?

How did it work out by placing 20 's on the front? Is there any special adjustments to be made? Any difference in braking or steering ? Also why two different brands? Do you still have stock wheels? Thanks for info. i need tires now.
I spoke with Goodyear today and according to them, they have the RS-A 255/45-19 scheduled for production next week. Their back orders will be filled first and everyone else should see stock in 30-45 days from now.
My SSR: Black, '03, 1sb, #1256, License Plate was WOW FCTR
