If you have 20s, they should be at least 10.5 rears, you should have 305/25 on them.
If you have 8.5 to 9.5 fronts, you should have 255/30 or 245/35. The 30s are very low sidewall. The 35s are more normal sidewalls and they will fit.
But 255/35 wont fit. They are too high. they wont clear the upper arm.

Thought so. For the rears, I am looking at 10in rears. The best I can fit on them is 295/25, but am worried it is too thin. I can't bump up to 285/30 or 295/30 as then the sidewalll will be too high compared to the fronts.

Raptor- I am runnning 245/35 in front and 285/30 in rear, but I am going to 295/30 when I need tires. It looks like a have enough space in the fenders to go, it might be high but i know others have used this size..
