275 40 20

[lamrith]

Yea I wanted the 255, only looked at stock size at the price. Going stock size with the RS, least expensive of the bunch....

Yeah that is too bad.  I was interested in 255's as well.

Nice writeup on the tires.  Interesting comment about the 45day free trial.

I am hoping that this will work on all 4 corners with the 275/40-R20.
Planning to go with the Lago's in 20*9.5 / 35 as that should let me run 255's or 275's in case the 275 rub.

Another option is the AMR's in 20*8.5 / 30.  AMR will give me more clearance to the struts, not as much poke, but I worry giving up the inch means no 275's either?

So, does anyone that is running 275's all around have any regrets, comments or tips to share about going with the wider size now that they have put miles on their cars?

Any unforseen issues, negative effects on handling, sluggish steering,  etc?  Would you do it again, or would you maybe drop back to 255's up front or all around?

NO regrets, H&R's and these tires are the bomb, I am thrilled..
No Rubbing, however, the wheels have to be the correct offset
My wheels Were +38 Offset, Link to the wheels and site: SO 20 x 9  5 x 114.3 , +38

OH yea, when i bought them "ON Sale" 807.00 for the Set, to my Door

I've only had my SHO for a month +, car does act funny while backing up on a dry/clean road with the wheels fully turned to either side but I've experienced that with other vehicles.
Handling is awesome (also have the H&R's), lots of grip. No sluggish steering.
So far I'd say I like the 275', the hard suspension not so much.

Thanks guys!!

The Wheels I am I am looking at are: 20x9.5  +35.  So they are wider, but also pushed away from the strut a touch more to counter that wider width.

That's what I'm running with 275/40s, stock PP suspension

Thanks Mrhighcaliber!

Running 275/40 on 20x9 on all 4 corners +38 fronts and an 8mm spacer out back to bring them to +30.  Zero fitment issues, perfect tire fitment on the rim, and fantastic handling.
