I might switch from 225's in the front to 215's now.

You won't need to switch from 225's to 215's if you installed the spacer kit I sent you

i guess here is wut i decide on.
i will put 18s up front, 20s at the back
front i will run 215/40/17
back i will run 215/40/20
wut do yall think??
i figure since the back you can do 235/45/18 it also means 20s should squeeze in no probelm!!
we will see how it goes.. pix to come!

95 e320, 01 c5 vette
18f/20r in my opinion will look weird. i see some of the vette guys run 18/20 weld coombos on the c5 and the 2 in difference distorts the look and lines of the car. but then again, it is your car and whatever you like best should be the way its done on your car.
