PIC REQUEST! 255/35/20 F and 285/30/20 R

Hey guys, i have a set of 20 inch wheels on the way, so i am starting to shop around for some tyres.

The rims are 20x9 in the front and 20x10.5 in the rear. I've noticed that a lot of websites recommend Front 255/35/20 and Rear 285/30/20 for this rim size, so i was just wondering if anyone with this setup could post some pics for me so i can get an idea of what it will look like. The more the merrier.

Anyone know why it is that the front is recommended in 35 series and the rear in 30 series by so many dealers? won't this look odd?

Thanks in advance for the pics and advice.

IMO, yes, completely goofy looking. Alot of places recommend this because they don't understand stagger and alot of tires don't come in 245/30/20 or 255/30/20. Some people also like to have more sidewall in the front for "protection". IMO, all poor excuses for not running the correct tire size and maintaining the stock height stagger

search is my friend

Hope the owner doesn't mind me using his pic

Front 255/35/20
Rear 285/30/20



I actually like it, sidewalls look identical.
