Widest Tire To Fit 10" Wheel?

I want to go as wide as possible on my rear 20x10" DPEs with or without rolling my fenders. Does anyone know the max I can go?

well, for stock height, you can run up to a 295. however, not in all brands. some are made fatter than others. i think a 285 would be better. but that sidewall is gonna flex.

i think the answer to that question also depends on your offsets and how low you are. i would say a rough estimate would be max 275 if you are lowered.

Thanks for the help guys but I'm already running 285/30s in the rear but I want to go wider. What I need to know is what size will safely fit on a 20x10" rim, regardless of trimming/rolling the fenders.

I need better traction for TTs.

brian, try a sticker tire then the GRB's such as the KDW's, PS2, or S03's all are made in the 285/30 20, all also make a 245/35 20 for the front.

^ yeah, of those listed, try to SO3's. reason is because it provides better clearance with the fenders.

315's will fit.

thats my next tire after i get my rims widened.

i currently have 275's on stock 8 in rims,
8---> 10in will yeild 50mm increase in width

so 275mm + 50mm= 325! it's even less drastic than my current set up
current setup has bee n great for just about a year.
look for threads about it under my name

I just put a 285/30/20 on my 20x10 wheel and I'm gonna have to roll my fenders. I know this is almost a month old, but just some added info.

Hmm, I've had Falken 285s on my 20x10s with Tein H-Tech springs for a few months now without rubbing. I'd like to go 295s if possible. What brand of tire are you running??
