thanks for the info.

i was comparing wheel/tire diameter and actually 265/35/20 is closer to stock height than 275/35/20.

275/35/20 is about 1/2" too high.

thanks again! happy new year!!

but 265 is going to look rather skinny on the 10" rim.

I have 285/30R20s on my ride an dit fits PERFECT!!!! a 265 on a 10" rim will look silly as the sidewall will be bowed.

As far as tire size affecting the speedo and such, I have not had any issues with my wheels. The factory computer can allow a 10% difference in tire size.

Good luck regardless I know you have been looking at a lot of wheels, what have you decided?

I'd go with a wider tire than the 265. I am waiting on my 18 X 9.5 wide with 275 Nitto's. You can easily go with 275 or 285 on 10 wide rims

hi jesse,
thanks for the info.
that would be back if the sidewall is bowed with the 265. i saw 265/35 on the rear of a porsche once. not sure if it was 10" wide though...and it was perfect...

i like 285/30/20 a lot but its like 1/2" shorter than STOCK wheel/tire diameter so, i wanted to keep it close. 275/35 is 1/2" too high...but i guess either way is good.

you got pics of your rear? thanks!

Here are pics of 275's on 20X10's.I would recommend the 285's.A little more sidewall and some section width(sidewalls) there.
