On my 3IS and some RSR down springs, the tires I went with are Toyo extensas 245/35/20 rear and 225/35/20 front, I wanted to ask some of the pros here If you guys thought I would have rubbing issues and if I did beforehand what I can do? thanks

 

I hate you Florida guys (joke). I want to put 20's on my car,but I live in the rust belt(Mich) where the roads look like an Iraqi land mine field. Post pics when they're on.

 

''where the roads look like an Iraqi land mine field'' Lmfaooooo. Will do!

 

bump! some serious tire stretching coming

 

No kidding 245 is a pretty narrow tire for the rears. What widths and offset did you end up going with for the CVT's?

And definitely pics when you get the chance haha.

Good luck with the install!

 

Lololol the rears are 20x10.5 the fronts are 20x9

 

Im gonna see if I move the 245 to the front and get 255 or 75 in the back, not sure what do you guys think??? need some advice on this asap my tires are shipped here in 2 more days!

 

I had 225 on 9.5 and 245 on 10.5 wheels in my previous car. It was necessary to fit the wheels. No point in stretching if you don't need to, so make sure you make your measurements regarding wheel offset, width, and camber.

Personally, 265 on 10.5 is a happy medium between stretch and square.

A stretched setup that doesn't protrude the fenders look horrible.

 

Yea my wheels are 20x9 front and 20x10.5 rear how do u honestly think 255/30/20 and 235/30/20 would be???

 

Depends on the tire but 235 on 9 inch wheel may be within some of the manufacturer's recommended sizing. It will look barely stretched.

255 on 10.5 is a moderate stretch and I don't recommend it to drivers who do aggressive driving. Be sure to check tire pressure often.

Since your rears are going to be a more significant stretch than your fronts, I recommend either sizing up your rear or sizing down your front. Personally, I have OCD when it comes to uneven tire stretch front to rear, it looks silly.

What offset are your wheels?

 

Ok gotta look at my box when I get home so then 255/30/20 and 225 in the front would be better??

 

The 20x9 are 38 and the 20x10.5 are 45
