I been doing alot of reseach and alot of ppl do run 275 on 10.5, drifting a car puts alot of stress on the tires so I guess 275 works fine with 11" , just gotta be careful with those curves .
BTW my offset on my 20x10.5 is 22+ so It will be cose with 285, i'll try to play it safe with 275 for now...... what are your offsets?

Rayden do you drive you car everyday? I cant see daily driving on a 275 on 11" that tire must be really stretched I would be scared driving around with that much of the lip exposed

I only drive my car to the shows & tracks. I only put about 2k worth of miles on my car this year and now its put away for the winter

I wouldnt put a 275/30 on a 20x9 you can do it but I wouldnt, the tire will be buldging out little compared to the rear 285/30 on the 20x10 and it wont look right IMO, if it was a 9.5 I would say ok but I wouldnt go over a 265/30 on a 9" but I dont even think anyone makes that size for 20's
8" - 225
8.5" - 245
9" - 255
9.5" - 275
10" - 285
10.5" - 295
11" - 305
those are the tire widths you should go with, now you can go one size up but anything more than 1 size up the tires will start to buldge out of the sidewall or you can go one size down but anything more than one size down the tire will begin to stretch and expose the lip to curbs and potholes

It's a 9. At the time of buying them, a 255/30/20 was about as rare as a four leaf clover so mathmatically, the next best option was a 275/30. This would maintain the overall diamter of the wheel from it's stock size. However now that several mfgr's have come out with 255/30/20, When these wear out, I'll be putting a 255/30/20 on the front.
