Im running 295's on 20's in the back and they tuck up fine and I also have the Eibach Pro's, Koni's, and an adjustable panhard bar. They look great with the 295's! Sorry dont have a pic since its been lowered.

My car is a daily driver and it's lowered with the Eibach pro kit. I dont want fender or clearance issues and just purchased a set of 20" rims.

What do you think? 275, 285 or the 295?

You putting these on the front, back or both?

I have a 18 x 9.5 on the back with the 285.

255 on the front
2x5 on the rear

I priced a set of Nito555 today at a local tire shop for $140 & $260 (285/35/20 on rear) and that includes mount & balancing. Reckon this can be beat online by the time I ship them??
