Cool 20" XD Black Monster Wheels

Hi
Does anyone have any pics with 20" XD 778 Black Monster Wheels fitted to their JK. What would be the best suspension set up to accommodate these wheels running 35X12.50R20 Toyo MT tyres?

Lift size is what you consider regarding tire size...
Example.... 3" lift will clear 35" tires
Wheel back spacing as well as wheel width is what you consider compared to tire width.
Example..... 4.5" BS will accomadate 12.5" wide tires and maybe a rim 8.5" wide (I run a 9" wide rim with 12.5)
Rim Size has no meaning ... except looks, sidewall of tire (looks), price of tires.
so a tire as you mentioned 35X12.50R20
Is 35" tall X 12.50" wide X R (rim) 20"
Hope this helps you customize your rig.!

I'm not so sure either, but it's definitely not "Jeeper" dialect.

20's for 35" tires aren't exactly my cup o' tea either, but I wouldn't dis' a fellow Jeeper if he used them. If they're wrapped with a suitable A/T at least, then it might not look too awful.

20's have their place, but I just think they're more visually appealing with 37's or bigger wrapped around them.

Fair call jeeperjkj, I'm just considering those specs at this stage that's why I'd like to see some pics if available. I'm also considering 22"s with 37's unfortunately Toyo & Nitto M/T tyres in those sizes are not available in Australia, so I have to rely on imagination and advice.

To the others, if we all had the same taste and style there'd be no need for forums and customisation
