I've picked out my wheels and tires and am looking for some opinions on fitment.

I think I'm good to go but I'm in no mood for expensive mistakes.

20x9 35 ET with 275/40/20's

Thoughts?

2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

The only thing I like about that car is the stance.

If you see any gold on my car, please contact medical support as I've obviously had a stroke.

While contacting "medical support" we all will be sure to request a custom made, gold plated heart to match your newly acquired gold wheels of your car.

This way it'll be like a symbiotic twin whenever the two of you are together.

Bwahahahaha
