Well I have 20's on mine. I suppose I am little lower than a non ss and I don't have issues. I know the user on here dudeasif has always had 20's on his and is lowered. I actually traded him for the ones I have on mine. I do believe he had to roll the fenders in the back, not sure though.

I have 20x7.5"s on my Panel and have no issues, didn't even roll my fenders. I also got a 2" drop all around plus a ton of audio equipment in the back ( not joking about the weight either ). Can't wait to see what ya got up your sleeve, I'm sure ol' Pyro will look sick on some new 20"s

There is a picture of a lowered HHR on the socalHHR's website in the Lowered section running 245/30/ZR20 Nitto tires and Gold-Line lowering springs.

Hey lunchbox - What size and brand of 20" tires are you running on your 20 x 7.5" wheels?

It has more to do with wheel offset, tire diameter and width than anything else.

thats whats driving me crazy..the offset..every time I find a set I really like...sorry not available..even all the visualizers ive been scoping online...very limited to what I can find
Im still looking into more info on the offset camber in the rear..haters gunna hate but I still think this would look sick on a panel with oversize wides on the back...[IMG][/IMG]
