click the link for the specs

let me guess, you also want chrome. btw, it's not an escalade.

i'm sure you also understand that the wheels get bigger, not the tires. if 20s are made for a tC application they will fit with the trd springs. you may have to roll the fenders and quarter panels so they don't rub depending upon your choice in offset. but they'll fit, they will just be heavy and ugly.

[/personal opinion]

i saw a white tC at Copeland Toyota in brockton ma. it had 20's TRD springs/shocks and it didnt rub at all but the tire profile was like 30 or somethin rediculous like that.

Yes, but it all depends on offset and how thick of tire you are running.... IMHO.... bigger than 19 does not fit the tC at all.... I'm infringing on rollerskate land with my 19X8's.... and you will almost definately have to roll your fenders, unless you go superlow profile and stretch your tires....

It will be loud, so be prepared...

Yes they will fit, I am trying to locate an image of one we did. It looks awesome. You would have to run a 225.30.20, Nitto Makes the Neo Gen in that size but like they guys said above, you would be sacrificing your ride and you have to have eagle eyes for road obsticles. On the other hand if its the look you want, you can't beat 20's. With your TRD lowering springs a 20x7.5 will do the job with the least possibility for rubbing.

yes 20's fit without any problems. I have them and have had them for months. They fit with the S tech springs that I think might be lower then the TRD springs. I am running the 225-30-20 Hankook tire. It is a rubberband but I have been real happy with the way it handles, looks and rides. Everyone and there mother has 17's and 18's. some have 19's. Not many are on 20's. here is the pic of it.
