What tires for 20" volk GT-7?

Looking for tires that wont rub and will fit well on an eibach PK drop.

What sizes are recommended? Is 275 too stretched and look retarded?

Also will the control arm be a problem on these 20s dropped? Thanks.

Specs of my GT7:

9.5 +35 F
10.5 +37 R

275/285 is always the safe route out back with 20's. Members have fit 305's on the back too tho, so I guess it's all up to your personal taste.

I'm running 275 out back on mine and I'm happy with it.

I recommend 275/30-20. With 285 you may run into rubbing issues if you go with a more aggressive drop.

How long does trimming take and does it affect anything on the car?

Thanks
