Toyo T1R / Nitto NT555 tire question?
Does anyone know if I can put 275/30/20 Toyo T1R onto 10.5 width wheel? is it safe?!? because on the Toyo website, the "Approved" Rim Width Range is only from 9.0~10.0, that's the only brand of tires I want, but the Nitto NT555 offers same tire size and 10.5 is within the "Approved width range. Would the side wall be any different between Toyo T1R and Nitto NT555? one is within the range and the other is not....

People put 255s on a 10"
So yeah, with that in mind, sure you can follow the "Approved" ranges and so on but it doesn't mean you can't "stretch" it a little. I think you will be fine with using that size on a 10" rim. I have a 275/30 on my 10" and its a very small stretch, on a 10.5" it shouldn't be too bad.
Also, another thing to keep in mind are that the Toyos have a rounded sidewall unlike the Nittos which are more squared off. Could be due to sidewall rating as well.

I am thinking about getting some 20x9 all around and non-stagger on my GS350 AWD and I want to be able to rotate my wheels so what would you guys recommend as the spec of the tires. The guys that I am dealing with is saying 255 or 265/30/20 what do you guys think?

The standard in AZ is always a 255/20/20 all the way around and a 20x9 wheel with no drop. If you are going to dump the car then you will need to stick with Falken FK 452 and don't go to the bottom of the coilovers or the lowest possible spring option
