Guys could you tell me if i were to get a set of 20 x 8 rims all
around with the stock SS tires would it be and look o-k...
I have a 10 SS Silver looking into Ultra Wheel Widow but only
come in a 20 x 8 size rim...Would like your feedback...

Better keep looking, the stock rear tire is on a 9 inch wide wheel - I believe that is about as narrow as you want for that size.

Look for something a little wider.

I did some additional checking, if you want the same size wheels front and back and want to use the stock tire sizes (we have staggered configuration) you have a narrow range of recommended widths. Due to the front tire no more than 9 inch, due to back tire no less than 8.5 inch!

So unless you change tires, that would be what I would recommend 8.5 -> 9 inch.

I went with the 275 tire up front (rear size) and upped the back to 305 tires, and I went with 10 inch rims all around due to the 275 on the front.

Hope this helps...
