Optimal Tire Sizes

On wheels that are 20 x 8.5 Front, 20 x 10 Rear what is the optimal tire setup.

Front = 5x112, 20 Offset
Rear = 5 x 112, 20 Offset

Option A. 255/35/20 Front, 285/30/20 Rears
Option B. 245/35/20 Front, 295/30/20 Rears

Thanks for your input but the only option I am considering are the two above. Out of the two I think 245/35/20 Front, 295/30/20 Rears. What is your assessment of the later?

Option B.
But S500Man is right but 245/30/20 295/25/20 would work best thats what i'm running not that much difference but the profile look of the size above make's wheel pop..............
