I am curious to get in on this also. My car is mini tubbed and I am looking for 20/18 options as well.

If your car is already minitubbed then you should try to fit a 20x12 in the back.
Check www.introwheels.com and look at there muscle car gallery. There is a 69
with 18s front and 20 back that look killer.

how much tubbing does your car have? (like in inches)

I believe a 20x12 would fit but not sure if the car would go as low as it would with a 20x10 because of the factory outer wheel house....I may be wrong though.

I considered 20x12, but I think tire height woudl be liek 29" which would cause problems on car with 3" drop springs. I think 18x12 will be where I go with this car or maybe a 19x13 if I can find the right tire

My car has the DSE kit in it
