hmmm. now deciding on this setup or the SM8?
im thinking staggered setup 20 in the rear and 19 in the front maybe?

I would do 20/20 its easier on tire costs... a 255 in 19's carries almost the same cost structure as 305 rears in 20's...

you will notice a trend in tire sales that typical front tire sizes are in one range of pricing and rears are in another. a 255 19" falls in the rear category and can be more expensive than a 255 20"... its crazy how the pricing works sometimes.

I say do the S5's or the SP5's nobody has those yet and I have several pending orders on the SM8's... it will definitely set you apart!

from what i understand, its all about economies of scale. its not much more expensive to produce a 255/35/19 vs a 245/40/19 but less people get 255/35/19's so less are made, increasing the cost per unit.

i havent looked in here in a while, the wheels are 7200 new because of the options but you can get the same wheel basic for just around 5000.

as for the lips...ive got a 5.25" out back with a very mild stretch and could use a 10mm spacer out back...so yeeeah i see 6" being extremely doable on a stretch with little if no pull
