Default How wide of tires?

Looking to buy sme 20x11s for the rear, and wondering what is the widest tire i can fit on there? Will be rolling fenders, well... more flattening them.

Thanks, WB

305s fit on 19x10.5s without issue (i.e. without ANY fender modification). I have no expertise with 20" wheels, Senior Water.

Did you post photos of 20x11 wheels on the car? Just curious what they look like.

^^ All depends on offset.

I have 20x11's on the rear. Unfortunately I don't know the exact offset as iForged doesn't release them. Rough measurements put them in the +25 range. I run a 295/25/20 with likely about -2.5 to -3 degrees of negative camber and rolled fenders. I'm going in for an alignment soon so should be able to get exact figures on that. I would have gotten a 30 series tire but it wasn't available, and I'm sure I could run up to a 305/30/20 or 315/30/20 without rubbing with my current alignment specs.

Depending on your offset, you may be only able to run a 245, or you may be able to run a 315, but we need to know the offset to be able to help you.
