Default Shelby Wheels

I have a 2006 Tunsten Gray GT and I am considering putting Black 20 inch Shelby Razors on it. I like the look of staggered tires. What is the widest tire that I can put on the rear wheel that is 20x9?

I believe the 285 would be about the widest you can go on a 9" wide rim.

275 is the widest "recommended" for 9 inch

I have a 285 tire on my 20x10's and it fits well in the wheel well. Many would agree that 275 would be the widest (I think).
