What tire size? Help a noob :/

Recently ordered some vip modulars vrc110 in size 20x9+20 front and 20x10.5+20 rear and also ordered airlift 3h kit, so my question is what would be the best tire size since I plan on being low with bags?

Yes I know i'll need fender work, getting my bags installed at fender defender so they'll do that to.

Thanks in advance for the help

Are you trying to go stretched on the tire fitment?

Just want an aggressive look, don't want a massive stretch..

Maybe a small stretch or just a meaty set up...not really sure

Would help to know for sure.

20x9 (front) - 235 width (stretched); 245 (less streched); 255 (should sit about flush)

20x10.5 (rear) - 255 (stretched); 265 (less streched); 275 (should sit about flush)

wall thickness- 35 (thin, low pros); 40 (good meat); 45 (would be kind of thick)

Just my .02 of above.

correct on the tire widths. However he will be running 20s so definitely not going with 40 series tires...

OP go with what was suggested but 35 series tires if you opt for the stretch look or 30 series if you want the meatier fitment.

I'm running 20x8.5 245/35 front and 20x10.5 285/30 rear and it is beefy

We would normally go with a 245/30-20 and 275/30-20 combo on a coupe.

On my (19 inch) 9.5 fronts and 11 rears I'm running 245/35 and 275/35 respectively. Fronts are barely stretched and wall height is good. Rears have decent stretch and are way beefier than they look in the picture. Hope this helps

Front


Rear
