why would you run such a huge tire in the back? 285/30/20 is the correct tire size

cuz that is the only thing i could get on the rim.. 275 is too stretched which results in no side wall. rim would almost be touching the road surface. it's either 35 or 30 i can't recall i would have to look.. Also when i got my car.. my factor tires and rims were staggered but wanted to keep the same ratio so i had the tire guy do the math and my mechanical engineer buddy put the specs in Pro E to give me the right setup with no problems

A engineering couldn't figure out that a 285/30/20 is the same height as a stock 245/40/19:245/45/18? 285/35/20 is almost an inch taller than stock, the 285/30/20 is still staggered from the front 245/30/20 also. Your staggered ratio now is way off from stock. I'm surprised you aren't having VDC issues
