Max tire size for 20 inch wheels?

Just got 2014 g550, tires are almost out so was wondering whats the biggest tires i can go with, without rubbing issues?
It has aftermarket 20 inch g63 style rims, and the current tires are 255/50/20

Was thinking to upgrade to 275/60/20 or 275/55/20
What do you think guys?

275/65R20 on Stock Rims/Suspension.

Goodyear Wrangler MT/R with Kevlar (of course).

Front Tires rub only when Steering Wheel is Fully Locked, so we are going to install some of these once I get my hands on them.

I would recommend 275/55R20, shouldn't have any issues (don't quote me though).

Thanks, but those are offroad looking tires, do they have regular tires in that size?

Probably.

Just go to Tire Rack and start typing in sizes.

I like the off-road look of your G NYC.
