Wide tire fit ment question
So..I've gotten tired of running stretched tires so I'm thinking about going with a different approach I'm only worried about the rears I'm running Tein CS2 coilovers pretty much dropped to the max and I'm running a 20x10 with a +26 offset the fenders are already rolled flat. With the 245/35/20 I have a tad bit of rub every now and then switched out to 245/30/20 and had no rubbing issues at all and but noticed camber wear and now I'm thinking about running a 285/25/20 does anyone think it will work ive tried to do some research but came up empty handed With the offset Im running

as everyone says time and time again, camber isnt whats causing the "camber wear" its your toe. if you want you could just reduce the toe and youll see more tread life; offset is you may see an increase in tramlining

It depends how much of a roll/pull you have and how low you actually are. you can always make adjustments to your suspension or pull the fende a little more. I used to run a 19x10.5 +30 with a 275 and no rubbing

We have an extremely popular and resourceful wheel and tire fitment thread where questions like this get answered quickly. It is your friend.
My limited knowledge here tells me rolling fenders is absolutely going to have to happen. More experienced guys will have to chime in about maybe having to pull too.

My rear was -1.8 and the problem is I was supposed to be getting the fenders pulled but can't reach any of the two guys that were gonna do it and I already have my 285/25/20s waiting to be mounted and I didn't wanna risk the chance of getting em mounted with the car rubbing like crazy to the point it's unbearable to drive

Just get them mounted and if it rubs raise your car up a bit until you can get the pull done. It's better to do the pull with the wheel and tire combo your gonna run anyway

One thing most people don't calculate in their fitments is that a given tires size will run narrow or wide from manufacturer to manufacturer. A 275 tire from "maker 1" may fit and a 275 tire from "maker 2" may not fit.
I ran a 275 on my 10.5 +25 Professors on aggressively cut fenders on natural camber. Those tires were Cooper 2XS's.
