20" Wheels but what size tires...?
G'day Guys,
My new Shelby Razors are set to be with me soon 9x20 & 10x20 so I need to source some decent tires, before I hunt for the wrong ones please can anyone recommend what size to go for. Would like to stay away from the rubber band look. Would you also like to mention what tyre brand is best for general driving.
I had a quick look & can see (f) 255 & (r) 285 have been mentioned also 275 all round by some members but would like to keep the ratio to 35 or even 40 to help with the bumps & lumps!
As I'm going for the staggered look I would like the widest tyres I can get on the rear...not overly bothered about the front other than to avoid the train track feel...
Many thanks!

All done - many thanks for all the input...it is a mine field!
Going for 265/35/20 up front & 275/35/20 out back! Michelin Super Sport -
All 4 delivered for a little over a grand(that's about $1550)...gulp!
Should get no rubbing & I gather it's gonna look OK on a 10" rim
Cheers fellas!

Those Shelby Razors look awesome! I probably would have went a little wider in the back, but it still looks good. I ended up trying some different tires until I found these.
My front wheels are 20x10, and because of the offset I has to do 255 35 zr 20
The rears are also 20x10, but there is more room in the rear wheel well so I did 295 30 zr 20
I did the Michelin Pilot Super Sports, and with that brand both sizes have a matching 27 inch diameter. So the wheel revs per mile is the same front and rear.
