Default Tires for 20" Rims Non Staggered

Hey guys,

I was just wondering if anyone knows of a non staggered setup for an AWD gs350 with 20" rims? I am currently looking to pick up some tires for a new set of rims I want, I am not entirely sure on which size tires to get and any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Does anyone know of any setups that have no issues with rubbing etc?

Thanks

245/30/20 depending on the width of the wheel.

The width would be either 20x10.5 or 20x9. What difference would the width make? Would 245/30/20 work for both these witdths without any rubbing issues etc?

you wont be able to run a 10.5 up front. 9" you can do up front and also a 245/30 will fit on a 9" wide wheel.

not sure if i answered this question when you pm'ed me yesterday. my work computer was acting up and running very slow so i just gave up on internet explorer

10.5 is way too wide. i guess running 20x9 all around is your best bet. and i also think 245/30 will work. if you want more cushion 245/35 will be the choice, but that's overspec so you might rub

well difference is you cant fit a 10.5" wide wheel up front. second you'll need a wider tire. a 245/30 will not strech onto a 10.5" wide. 10.5" wide wheel will require a 285/25
