Thanks for the info. I was hoping someone would respond that used them all year round. I'm in Texas, and it doesn't realy snow here much. By the way, those are directional tires. Look at your side walls, there is a small arrow that is embosed/raised on them that points in the direction they are suposed to go. It's a comon mistake people make. Some people, even tire stores say it doesn't matter, but I beg the differ. The tred should only go one direction.
well excuse me if I was wrong. They are all rotating in the right direction When they are on my pt. Like I said I dont rotate them and they are all wearing evenly anywayz.
Ericpt: It rides fair,worse than stock of course but It is so worth it for the custom look. If you go over the slightest bump in the road you will feel it hard on the inside especially in the back. I havent had any bent rims to date though, thank god. 20's in the rear are the perfect size for the wheel well, It fits in there perfectly. Your 20's in the rear would not rub though. They will tuck in if you lowered it like 2" and roll smoothly. It all depends on the offset of the 20 rim and the tire size you get. I have 245/35/20 which is enough rubber to cushion the rim and tuck in. You can get Nitto's 225/35/20 but I wouldnt recommend it cause of potholes, but you could really tuck in the rears with that size tire. And if you have disc brakes in the rear just forget getting 20s. You would put strain the traction control system very bad, better off which drum brakes if you got em.
