Need help with tire size decisions.
So I am 90% sure on the rims I am going with.
Option 1: 20x9 +23 in front and 20x11 +28 in the rear I have been playing around with a tire calculator and came up with these number. Please let me know if these sizes look OK. (I don't want the tires to stick out past the fenders, at least no more then a few mm.) Front 235/35 (this will lower the front by 7 mm - not ideal) Rear 295/30 (this will raise the back by 11mm) Is it OK to lower the front and raise the back like that? Or should I go with 235/40 up front (raising the front by 17mm)? Option 2. 20x9 +32 in front and 20x10.5 +15 in the rear Front 245/35 (this will raise the front by 1 mm) Rear 275/30 (this will drop the back by 1 mm) Option 3. 20x9 +32 in front and 20x10.5 +25 in the rear Front 245/35 (this will raise the front by 1 mm) Rear 285/30 (this will raise the back by 5 mm) Any feedback on these set ups would be appreciated. .

Option 2 is closest to what I have. Back is flush, front sticks out a hair. Tho my wheel up front is 20x9 +20. Rears are perfectly flush (no spacers)
20x9 +20 20x10.5 +27 245/35/20 Fronts 285/30/20 Rears My measurements. Rear flush, front flush except a tiny little peek at the front. Last edited by Malm; 06-23-2014 at 01:43 PM. |

Thank you.
I guess I should add, that I will stay stock height most likely. to start with anyway. When you say +20 sticks out are you talking about the wheel or the tire? My calculations show that with +20 the wheel should stick out 3 mm and the tire 11 mm. Last edited by cooltoy; 06-23-2014 at 01:52 PM. |

That looks about like what I figured (and ketchan told me about), that's why I think I will go with +32. Not as concave, but will be closer to the way the rear looks.
