Default Air ride & 20's

Does anyone know of a 2000+ monte with air ride and 20's? If so do you know what if any thing that would need to be done to make it all work together? If so let me know plz, by the end of this year my hopes are to have mine done this way. But regaurdless, once I get it all on I'll post pics, but don't hold your breath. It's gonna take me awhile to raise the money to drop the monte.

Default RE: Air ride & 20's

OK. Here's what I have come to realize so far. Sets are available for the 6th Gen for the air ride. Here is what your problem is gonna be when combined with 20's. You will have clearance problems with the wheel wells. Bear in mind that the normal 20" wheel is approximately 8-10" wide. With the limits of backspace available due to your suspension (remember, it IS still a car), the wheel will stick out further than what you probably have now. When you go to drop the car, there is a strong chance the wheel wells will not clear the tires. Hope this helps. The best way is to research the wheels you are interested in to see what kind a spacing it will have (this should tell you how far back into the wheel well it will go as well as how far it will stick out).
