So coil overs would be a good next step.

Ideal up front is 255 or 265. Minimum of 245. Rear ideal is 275 or 285. Maximum of 305. I just went through all this last week and finally settled with 255/30R20 and 285/30R20. Everything looks great. No rub. Wheels are parallel with the tire walls. My offsets are now +8/+12 and I went up an inch from stock wheels...people will cry 'cause I stay 30 all the way around but it looks great and handles just the same. Don't let internet lawyers persuaded you into a "standard". Stay between the numbers above and you be fine. Good luck.

You should be fine. The re11 in the 265/305 are skinnier than what I'm running on the same widths.
