just out of curiosity, why would you run a 30's series on the rear and 35 series on the fronts? aren't the 30's a lot thinner??

I ran 245/35 f and 275/35 r on my new 20's and i think it looks perfect...

^^this is because 275/35 is way above the stock diameter by more than 4.5% whereas the 275/30 is only 0.68% differential to stock tire size...also, we are talking about a sedan, i see you have a coupe in your sig..also, for coupe i would run 255/30 or 245/30 in front and 275/30 or 285/30 in the rear

Perfect answer, 35 series on 20's is HUGE
