Yes they will fit but you have run the 225/30/20 tires made by BFGOODRICH. They are not cheap.

20" tires will cost more than the rims.

The tread on the 20's is the same as 19's 18's and 17's!! So that comment is WAY false! As far as slowing your car down............... well not too likely!

The tread is the same, but the 30 series sidewall will break your jaw on bumps. And they will more than likely slow you down quite a bit, the extra weight plus the greater rotational mass will definitely slow you down.

very true that it is the same, low pro tires and preformance tires wear faster than normal, I think I have about 3000 miles left on mine, if that, they are getting skinny

also 20's will slow you down, its a bigger radius to spin, takes more power.... power our car doesn't have to waste. it also weighs more.

cheaper isnt always better especially w/ 20's... id personally rather have forged 19's then run some cast 20's.. remember 225/35/20 nitto 555 are thin and cheap wheels= bending= you just lost ur "cheap" investment
