I have new 20x10 rear wheels that came with 275/30 tires. To me the tires seem like they are not wide enough to fit the rim. Is it just me

Great wheels but....
I have new 20x10 rear wheels that came with 275/30 tires. To me the tires seem like they are not wide enough to fit the rim. Is it just me or does this look awkward?

It's definitely a little stretched, but not horrible.

Lexani R-Tweleve
Front 20x8.5 with +20 Offset (Perfect flushed fit. No spacers needed) Rear 20x10 with +35 Offset (I can still get away with using my 20mm spacers) Quote:

I agree with you. Probably better with 285's at least.

  I like meaty tires that protect my rims. I can pull right up next to curbs without stressing, which in turn makes drive-thru transactions like bank or fast food much easier. I just have to wipe down and redress the sidewalls on occasion

Unless the car spends most of it's time parked and buffed for photo shoots, I'd just make sure you have tires properly sized for the wheel. Check the tire specs on manufacturer's site before buying.
