315.25.20 and 255.30.20 was my next set of tires, before beebo took her away from me

would just have to dial camber down to -2 all around and be hella wide, hella flush.

i don't mind raising the car a bit

what if i get 295/30/20 for the rear since General tires do not have wider sizes?

you absolutely cannot just add sidewall height to the mix without matching the front. this will cause VDC issues.

And there are factors such as stock overall height that you have to worry about. If you throw off the stock overall height too much, your speedo will be way off.

If you're worried about your lips being expose, just do 315.25.20 and 255.30.20 Dial negative camber to -2 (currently at -1.6) and then you will have more protection. And if you want, raise the car 1/2 inch.

who is this socal guy you guys keep talking about, SOCALWDUP? LOLOL

what wes isnt mentioning is that the front tires have about 3000 miles on them and the rear about 1500-2000. they're literally brand new tires...

I'd do 275.30.20 and 245.35.20 with a good stretchable set of tires. Otherwise, keep it the way it is bro, and just raise the car a lil bit. There isn't much you can do to a 20x11 rear.

The sizes I have are perfect front and rear....you cant add or subtract sidewalls without throwing off your speedo significantly, or throwing off your VDC.


and if you end up stretching more....it will look ugly because I have a lot of clearance left for even wider tires!
what about 285/30/20?

285/30/20 will work with 245/35/20.

but IMHO you're better off with 295/25/20. 285 will expose more lips than 295s and there isnt "more" sidewall" to offer any protection since it's stretched more.
