Default Quick tire size question

well i just had my first blowout. was running nitto 555's and they lasted about 30k so i cant complain. i bought this car with the rims already on, and here's what i have: 20x8.5 in the front and 20x10 in the rear. i dont know the offsets. it had 245/35/20 up front and 275/30/20 in the rear. the rear looks stretched, so i was wondering if these sizes sounded right or not.

i don't think iforged gives out offsets. they are custom made. those tire sizes sound about right. same size i run on my 20x9 and 20x10. with 285/30/20 in the rear you might rub.

will the 285's rub? i wanted to move up to the 285's because they look really stretched right now and dont have much of a sidewall.

How much clearance is there between your fender and tire?

I run a 255/30/20 (9"wheel) front and a 285/30/20 rear (10"wheel) on our show car. it has a desent drop on it. It rubbed just slightly (with a passenger in the car) untill I rolled the fenders.

(here is a pic for you)




In your situation you should be fine with a 285/30/20.

Need any more help PM me. We are in S.D. as well
