Default Rims and dropping

Hello, I have a 1992 2dr 2wd s10 blazer stock. I'm looking to buy some 20" rims and was wondering what tires do i need to look for, and also will i be able to drop it any without it rubbing or having to cut anything. Thanks

probably do a 2-3 with out cutting anything, most 20's are wide though so you may run into rubbing issues when turning

personally i would get at least a 40 series sidewall to protect the rims but with 20's you'll most likely be way oversized and really screw up the speedo

theres alot of rim and tire info over at s10forum.com its mostly lowered s-series vehicles over there

Nah, 255/35/20 is 27" tall which is actually an inch shorter than the 235/70/15's that it came stock with.

Even then, 255/40/20 is 27.9" tall, equal to stock tire size.

That's odd. I just googled them. That site may not carry them.
