Hey guys,

Will a 295 fit on the rear of our cars with no rear fender modifications? I know the 285/25/20s work, but will an extra 10mm cause problems?

Thanks
Tony

I think its tight no matter what our rim offset is - but you *might* just get away with it if your offset is spot on....

I got rubbing with 295s on 19 inchers at stock height. I can't see running them on 20 inchers. Even if you get just the perfect offset, what about car jiggle and suspension deflection. You'll rub then.

Don't do it bro, 285 was pretty close from rubbing w/my previous 20" set up.

easy to run into problems w/ tires that are too fat on the rear of the e55

295s will definitely fit. i don't know about your profile, but you need to keep it as close to OEM as possible. Even a 3% increase in total diameter will change things.
Also, as DSC said, even though you may dial it in just right, you still need to keep suspension flex in mind. More rubber = better traction and even more load on the suspension. I have been running 295/30/18s on the rear for quite sometime now. More power will demand some suspension support work. Toe links is just the beginning.

Thanks guys for all the feedback!

I will stick with the 285/25/20s.

Thanks again
Tony
