I'm currently running 235/25/19 front and 265/30/19 rear tires (slightly stretched) on 19" VVS-CV1 Vossen's with my suspension H&R super sport springs. I currently have no rubbing issues at all even with full load of people.

I am moving to Vossen CV2's which are 20", right offset 45 and 53 rear 20 x 8.5 and 20 x 10

I want to keep it close to the correct spedo specs. I'm hearing 275/25/20 rears are the perfect size but apparently Nitto Invo's are the ONLY option? Anyone else know other brands? or other options? with size/brands?

There more options with 285/25/20 however do you guys think it will rub?

Any advice or help would be appreciated!

I've got vossen 20s on my w204 same specs and and that is one of 2 options. That is the very pricy one. $800 for just the rears I'm pretty sure. If you are lowered this is the only option. As far as I know. However if you are not lowered I did find a $400 option with a slight tire size change. I can't remember the specs I'll have to check when I get home. There was some slight rubbing on turns so I had the rear fenders pulled an haven't had issues since. Might be fine lowered but scared to try. Lol! I got them from wheel king just north of 7 and woodbine I think. Check out Puremb I've got some pics posted.

Ya but the tread is really nice. Lol! Let me check out my check out my wall size there might still be something inbetween that might work.

285/25/20, huh? Damn... Talk about driving on rubber bands!

285's might work, however not sure if it will rub on the inner lining or fender?
any thoughts on 285's with lowered suspension?

so my rears are 275-30-20. thats not lowered and fenders pulled, when they weren't pulled there was a slight rub on the notorious passenger rear on big bumps and hard lefts. hope that helps a little.

I am running 4 yr old Eibach Pro Kit springs on the original shocks. I got a lot of miles too. Front wheel is 20x8.5 42et on 245/30-20 tires. Rear 20x10 53et on 285/25-20. My outside rear fenders do not rub at all even with people in the car. However they do rub the inside fender covers (as pictured) when I hit big dips with people in the back. I had 255/30-20 before but they looked so skinny.

I'm sure we could arrange something once the nice weather gets here and I've got them on. Where abouts are you?

ya of course, problem is only 1 manufacturer (Nitto) makes the 275/25/20
and it cost $1000 for 2 tires

275/30/20 will work but the overall diameter is much greater then OEM, so the speedo will def be off, by how much I am not sure. I'd have to check one of those tire calculator sites.

285/25/20 Vredestein tires on 20" HREs. I get a little rubbing with H&R coilovers. More with more passengers, but it's not awful. Springs might fare better.
