I have a coupe dropped on swift springs. I also have a set of 20 inch concept ones, front being 245/35/20 22et and rear 275/30/20 27et. I really like the way the rear looks but it seems that the tires stick out a bit more than I'd like so I'm thinking of running the 265s in the rear. However, the fronts do not sit as flush so I am wondering if I switched to 255/35/20 in the front if that would make it more flush?


The other thing is I am running nittos 555 all around and it doesn't look like they make a 265. Can I run another tire instead?

Anyone have any pics of this type of setup with 255 in front and 265 in rear?

 

anyone?

Would 255/35/20 tires fit in the front without issues?

 

can someone please chime in? Need some help from the experts on here.

Is a 255/30/20 tire on the rear too stretched for safety/traction?

The nitto 555s don't come in 265/30/20 so now I am wondering if I need to change all of the tires or if I could run a different tire in the rear?

Also, I'd like to fill in the front gap a little more with a 255/35/20, would that fit?

 

The nittos are a very square tire so you should be fine in the fronts with 255
Is your rear wheel width 10 or 10.5j? Either way a 255 on a 10.5 j rim is IMO stretched above my comfort zone.
I'm sure other members will chime in and say how they run a 225 tire on a 11j rim or whatever

 

rear is 10.5, front is 9.

 

255 on a 10.5 will be stretched for sure

 

The 255/30's will be fine up front on that wheel. I'd go 255/35-20 front and 285/30-20 rear for best results.
