I just got a 1992 S15 sonoma from this old guy for $3500.

I am wanting the 20" X 8.5 Boss 312 on 5-4.75 bolt pattern http://www.bossmotorsports.com/custom_chrome_wheels.cfm?id=246

I am just curious if there is any possible way to avoid the rubbing with out cutting?

Is there a specific size of tire that would be good?...not to skinny i am not wanting to wreck my rims!!!

I am not planning on bagging it just lowering either 3-4 or 4-5. What do you thinks the best for my application?

Please help me as i am only 15 and want an awsome vehicle to drive to school in a few years!

20x8 4.5 Back Spacing 245/40 R20 with a 3 inch drop any more and you will have to bag

sorry my friend theres now way outta of this. if you realy want 20"s you need to eather take out the fender welds or cut them. i tryed 20"s with 35 series tires with my 3/3 drop. the back is fine but the front was rubbing realy bad. and i thought it looked realy stuped with the 20"s i got.

you can, i did it.  the thing is, you might have to sacrifice some ride comfort.  i had to put spaces on to get them to fit.  originally i had 22's that wouldnt work at all.  but the spacers do the trick.  oh, mine are 22 x 8's but yes it can be done.
