Exclamation Will a 275/30/20 tire on a 9" wide et 28 wheel fit the front???

I am buying tires for my new wheels hopefully tomorrow, i want to go with a non staggered setup as i want o have a more oversteer biased balance, so the plan is to fit 275's around. I have heard some having small rubbing problems with 275 and other say its ok...

Wheels (front)
Diameter: 20"
Width: 9"
Offset: 28mm

Tires
Brand: Continental ContiSport contact 2
Dim: 275/30/20 (26.5" diameter)


QUESTION:
Will the wheel/tire combination fit the front without rubbing during HARD (track) driving and full lock?


My Z currently runs on stock suspension


Thanks in advance for your help guys

it fits no problem. I was running 19x9 with 275/30 and my car was very low with coilovers.

Thanks SickG35

What tires did you use?

Toyos are usually narrower for the same dimension then other brands, the Continental's (German tires) are pretty much neutral, not larger or smaller then average. Dunlops and Goodyear are usually wider etc

I guess its hard to tell, but was there resonable margin as well? Your tires will be 1" less diameter then mine as well, i hope that wont eat up the margins...
