it all depends on how LOW you want your car to sit... how aggressive you want to get in terms of offset... cause between a 35 series and a 30 series tire... the feel is almost the same...

Plus Florida has some decent roads as compared to NY...

20" wheels with 40 series tires will probably rub even with a mild drop.

If you're going to go with 20" wheels, go with a 30 series tire. 255/30 or 245/30.

Would a 40 series tire on a 245wide 19'' tire throw the speedometer off and possibly throw a code?
