245/50r20 tires

Just putting this out there because not many people run this size on their cars.  I know most run either 245/45 or 255/45, but not much about 245/50.  It's been mentioned a couple times on here, but not too much info out there.

Just put these general altimax rt43's on today and they're a perfect fit.  I was worried if they'd be a little too beefy, but they look great.  No clearance or rubbing issues at all.  You'd think these were stock if you didn't know any better.  They fit the wheel well perfect.  Speedometer is going to be off a little, but whatever.

3.3% or thereabouts, but can be adjusted with tune/in IDS.

Tires look good!

Thanks - I'm happy with the look.  Pretty sure the % difference only makes a difference for the AWD system if i'm running different sizes front and back.  Shouldn't matter if all 4 are the same.  The snows i run are 3.7% smaller than the stock 245/45's and it doesn't affect anything.  Only thing that's affected is the speedometer.  No big deal for me.
