How you guys doing? I just purchase a set of 215s and I need advice on tire size.

I dont want anything too low profile and I also like my tires to stick out about half an inch from the wheels.

Any suggestions?

You should add some information about the size of rims..

I guess they are 20", but is it a stag setup.? 10,5", 9.0" width..?
