depends on what vehicle, the 02 vw beetles lay out on 20s without control arms.

u got a s-10. the easy way is to buy a set of a-arms. if u use the factorys, u have to raise the ball joints up on the top and the bottoms a-arm.

I modified my stock arms to lay on 20's
and no you don't have to raise the balljoints on an s-10, you simply cut the humps off the lower arm and plate it, and angle the upper balljoint in about 13 degrees and reweld the arm at the new angle
then you just trim down your bag cups and notch for the tierods and notch the lower arm mounts
don't forget to tub the firewall, and raise the wiring harness, and rebuild your blower box to clear your tires
it's a weekend job if you have some good welding skills and some sheetmetal and 1/8" plate laying around
