20" Maya MRS wheels
20" Maya MRS wheels
So I think I have narrowed it down to the Maya MRS in the Black Diamond / Anodized finish (it is the 3rd one over on the 1st row).

I think this will go very well with the Black 06 I will be getting in three weeks (if I sell my S2000 by then).
Since the sizes are very wide (20x9 F, 20x10.5 R), I think I want to go with a 255/35 20, and a 295/30 20, but I cannot find anyone that makes a 295, only 285. The odd thing is that you can find 295/35 19, which is 27.1 inches tall, but to get a 27 inch tall 20" tire, you would need the 295/30, yet no company makes it, at least not yet.
The other option is to go with a 245/35 and 285/30, but then the tire will have that extra rounded, stretched look, and it will be slightly shorter as well, and I want to fill the gap in the fender well as much as I can.
Your thoughts.

Honestly, I was also considering the MRS but decided instead on the STM - Diamond Graphite in 19". I am going with a 245 front and 275 rear set up...i think 255 front and 295 is pushing it though especially with 20" wheels - you might rub.
I know you want to fill the wheel wells but honestly, I don't think there is going to be much space left after you put the 20s on. I think 245 front and 285 rear is your best bet - pass on the 295s.

I actually have 255/35 20 on my 2004 Acura TL, with no rubbing at all, and the diameter of the wheel well on the G is actually slightly larger, so I should be fine, especially since the Maya wheels have a fairly conservative offset. I also think that 255 is the best width for a 9 inch wide wheel, and 295 for a 10.5, so if I could find it, this would be the way I would go.
Interestingly, the Michelin Pilot sport 285/30 20 actually measures 27.0 inches in diameter, as apposed to most companies 26.7 or 26.8. This makes it a good match with the 255/35 20, which is also 27 inches. The only downside is that the 285 is only 30 mm wider than the 255, so it really should have a 10 inch wide rear wheel, not the 10.5 that the Maya's are. I like it when both the front and rear shoulder of the tire looks the same, not when one is more stretched than the other.

Where did you see them?
The only downside is the Proxes 4 tread desing sucks.

Since the Dunlop Sport Maxx in the 283/30 20 is 26.8 in diameter, only .2 smaller than the 295/30 in the Proxes 4, and just as wide, I don't think it is worth it. I think I will just go 245/35 20 and 285/30 20 in the Sport Maxx. My hope is that BFG would make a 295/30 in the KDW, as that tread looks so good on the G coupe.
