will the dk custom comfort lift bracket with nexgen 13 inch shocks work with 20 inch rear wheels instead of oem 18 inch?
thanks for any advice
 
So few RG3 owners are running 20" rear wheels that I'm not sure what kind of response you're going to get. I would say that it will depend on the overall height of the 20" wheel and tire VS the overall height of the OEM wheel and tire.

Are you currently running 20" rear wheels?

no i am looking at a new wheel set
 
Take a look at TireSize.com and make some comparisons to your stock tires. A quick look tells me a 7” rim will require a tire that is too tall. An 8” rim with a tire at the correct height is much wider than stock and would be extremely tight. A shorter tire (215R30 on a 8” rim) may be a compromise but would affect your gear ratio and speedometer. Also the offset of your new wheel would have to be near perfect. Even if it fits, you will probably have a brutal ride with the short sidewall regardless of shock quality. Personally, I would forget about the 20”s.
Just some things to think about. Good luck and ride safe!
