I have 20"s on my car. I am running 275/40 on the back and 255/35 on the front with stock suspension, i have not lowered the car. The fronts with the 35 are close to stock height tires but the back with 40 are about an inch taller then stock so i had to reset the tire size on my xcal 2 for my speedo to be correct.

I'm running 255/40/20's front and 275/40/20's rear, staggered 8.5 & 10's. I wish I had gone with 295's in the rear. Its lowered with the Pro Kit and the fronts are kinda tight to the top of the fender. But no rubbing at all.

I would not go over 35 series in the back. I have 30 series in the back and 35 up front. My rims are staggered 8.5 incheswide in front and 10 inches in the back therefore it looks like the sidewall for the front and back are the sameby the naked eye. Hope it helps J
