Rim and Tire fitment help?

Tried searching through the forums for a minute but didn't see an obvious response...

I just snagged the Vossen VSF-1 rims.

They are 20x8.5 +44 and 20x10 +55.

My problem is now looking for a rear tire that will fit. The Nitto Invo 275/25/20s fit but the load rating is below manufacturer spec and the tire place says they can't legally put them on.

Will 285/25/20s fit? I could get some Michelin Pilot Super Sports then.

If not, any tire suggestions? I'm not lowered at all and just don't want to rub.

Thanks in advance!

Tons of options at 265/30-20 with the proper XL load rating. You're out of luck at 275 or 285 in the right diameters I think.

I agree, 265 will fit a 10" wheel fine and there are tons of options in that size.

You should be able to fit 285/20.

I've seen 285/25 on 20x10. You may have potential rubbing in all honesty, but, depending on your height, you could probably shave down a bit wher eyou're rubbing, and dial in a bit of negative camber to help with it.

None
The Michelin website used to list minimum and maximum rim widths for each tire, but I can't find that on the site anymore. A 285 should be fine, but 265 seems a little thin for a 10" rim.

Thanks everyone. I'm rolling my fenders and trying a 275/30/20. I'll let you know how it goes in terms of rubbing!

This is 19x10 +55 with a 275/30-19 lowered on H&R springs. Your tire will be 1/2" closer to the fender. She's gonna be close but I put money on it rubbing.
