Your front tire looks different than before. Is it still the 275/30/20 or you something else.
Very keen eye! I switched out the thicker tires (much better looking) to thinner tires in the front. Despite the rubbing at full turn which I was able to live with, the biggest difference was it felt unstable from the large side walls. I find when jumping onto the highway on the large turns or a lot of wide turn scenarios, I felt the car bounce side to side or "rock" side to side too much and didn't like that unplanted feeling. Wanted the car to be abit more planted which I got after switching to a more fitted tires in the front. I did left the rears alone and it was fine.

Understood. Too much side wall will make the handling worse especially you have to squeeze it in a narrower rim. It also happened to me when I switch from the 255 to 265 on the front in the 20x9. By the way, what size of tire do you use in the front now?
Just joining the club, on stock suspension, but looking for recommendations on new tire setup. Currently I’m on Toyo Proxes T1R, 305/25ZR20 rear and 255/30ZR20 front. I would like to retain some comfort, put on a bit more meat, and minimize wheel gap. Any recommendations on tire brand and setup? Should the setup include suspension at the same time? Thanks in advance for any recommendations!
