Thumbs up Need some help?????

I'm wondering if 275-35-r20 will fit on my 05 coupe without rubbing, also will 255-35-r20's work on the front. I'd like to post pics but I don't know how. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Go advanced reply, and you can upload pics.

People will need the exact rim or at least the offset to know how far the rim/tire will be.

^ Definitely need to know the offsets. I'm running 255's up front and 285's in the back on 20's (20x8" & 20x10.5"), no rubbing issues at all. Actually had to install spacers all around for a more flush look. Rim offsets are +30 front & +32 rear and running 20mm spacers up front and 10mm rear (rear active steer) and I still have room.

Rim size and offset is critical when giving you the answers you need Mr. B. Rear fit shouldn't be an issue if you have at least a 9" rim with -30 offset. Fronts require the right offset to run tires that big without rubbing....Gary

Thumbs up

The rim size is 20x8.5 (offset plus 20) in the front and 20 x10.5 (offset plus 20) in the rear. Thanks for the replies, I'll try to post pics.

Still don't know how to upload pics

Thank you anyway I have the same problem and i got the answer.....what problem would that be????

I also forgot to mention I lowered my coupe 1 inch in the front and .60 inches in the rear using Tanabe NF210 lowering springs (love them by the way). I hope this won't cause an issue for the new rim and tire setup.

Under your message block after you've typed in your message you will have two options, "post reply" or "go advanced". Click "go advanced" instead of "post reply" and it will bring up a different message block with more options. (or you can just hit go advanced before typing in your message and you can type it there)

In the upper options of the new message block next to the smiley face (smilies) there will be a paperclip (attachments), click the paperclip. It will bring up a window titled "manage attachments" and will give you the option to browse your computer for a file to attach such as a picture. [so wherever you have the pics saved on your pc, go there and select them]

Once a file (picture) is selected it will appear in one of the 3 blocks in your "manage attachments" window. Once this has happened simply click "upload" to the right. It will say "uploading please wait". When it is finished, now you can go back and click "post reply". Now your reply will have your message along with the picture(s) you attached.

Hope this helped.

By the way, you will be fine with your offsets, tire size and drop. (Worst case a rear fender roll).
