Help!! Just ordered 295/25/20!!!
Ok guys. I had a new set of 20" roderick cinque on my e55 for 6 months. Rears are 285/25/20 and started to wear heavily on the inside. I now have to get some new tires and I just ordered 295/25/20. My rear rims are 10 inches wide. Will these babies fit properly? I cannot find any info on this. Anyone running 295s on 10 inch rears without any rubbing issues. These will be here Sat, and I need to know asap if I need to go back to 285s. I have inspected the rears and it will be VERY close. Please let me know. Thanks!!

Well, Hankooks do not make 285/25/20 anymore. They were replaced by 295/25/20. I remembered seeing someone posting that they had 295s and it fit ok. I was wanting to know if it will look "right" on a 10 inch rim. I know it will be ok on a 10.5 inch rim. It was a spur of the moment decision. I was at work when discount tire called me. It was a spur of the moment decision. Plus the pricing was really great!!

Not all 295's are the same, Some are more narrow than others. Do Hankooks usually run wide or ?

will fit fine...have three e55's down here on 10 inch rears running them and they look great...just make sure the front tires are not taller than the rears cause then it would look odd

lol thanks for your comment, with zero helpful input whatsoever . thick tires give you a wider stance, and better traction so you are less likely to spin your tires when you floor it, and give you more surface area and contact to the street. enjoy your 215s..

they should be fine, if you are slammed you might have some rubbing. but for the most part, you should be okay.. take it easy around the pot holes brotha
