Default Tire Size Question

I have a GS with Explosion Body Kit and Eibach 1.5" drop and Bilstein shocks etc.

Will l245/40/20 and 275/35/20 be OK or will I have problems?

I need an accurate answer to this so please only those with specific knowledge answer this.

thanks,

Ted

Ted you know you coulda asked Mr. 20s man! Rom is absolutely right, the 40/35 setup is just too thick for our cars, the size he quoted is the best setup for 20s staggered

i understand that 245/35/20 and 275/30/20 is ideal but why wouldn't the 245/40/20 and the 275/35/20 work?

seems as though its just a little different but not much.

I'm not looking for what the ideal is, just wether 245/40/20 and 275/35/20 will fit and work.

Simply, will lthe sizes I gave fit or not?

thanks,

Ted
