Going With Wider Tread, Need Help!

Hey guys, I've been running 255/35 & 285/30 on my 20s for six months or so and I'm needing more traction for FI. My question for any tire expert is, will 255/30/20 & 295/25/20 and/or 255/30/20 & 305/25/20 work with VDC? Is it the proper stagger? I'll be rolling/trimming my fenders to allow for this wider setup.

I'm either going with the 295s on my 10" rim or will buy a 11" for the 305s.

TIA for any help!

The second setup is a closer match but the rears are still a little short. Does anyone make 295/30s?

Exactly but I didn't think anyone made a 295/30/20. Does anyone know?

Toyo Proxes PX4 came out with a 295/30ZR20. It's about $250 a piece.

Hmm, it's an all season. I wonder how the grip would be compared to a 285/30 summer tire? Their website makes no mention of the new size.

Sorry, my warehouse showed that the Toyo did have 295/30/20 in the Proxes PX4 but it could have been replaced with the FX4 and the size might have been discontinued.
