I can't really disagree with the manufacturer/supplier, can I (tee hee).

I would agree that small diameter wheels fit better with the control arms than they would with spindles.

However,

Once the spindles and/or original control arms are clearanced to fit your wheels, they will now fit 20" rims and stock rims.

You can use the existing everything else when using spindles - no special ball joints or nothing.

I recommend spindles over arms. They will both work.
