Default 02 LS on 18's or 20's?

I have a stock 2002 blazer LS 4X4 and am looking to put either 18's or 20's on it. I do not want to deal with driveline problems or rubbing. This vehicle is at stock height and staying that way. I have been considering either 18's with 235/55/18 but they look so close to stock so i started lookin at 20's with 245/40/20. I want a low profile look but do not want problems. any suggestions or help??? please?? alos i live in NYC where the roads suck so not too low of a profile, i don't wanna bend anything!!!

Go with 20's, 18's would look too small. But if you do decide to go with a 20" wheel the best tire sizes to get is 245/45/20 or 255/45/20.

I agree with 20's, you wont have a prob rubbing with that series of tire(245/40/20). They are actually 1.2 inches smaller than stock.
