Im looking to get wider tires out back, and would appreciate some pics.

i currently have 275/40/20 on a 20x10 wheel, and im not satisfied. Im thinking about 305/35/20.

Post pics of your set-ups. Thanks.

If the 285/35/19 tire has the same diameter as the stock tire, why would the car sit up any higher?

Must be the air shocks I had on it It's just the angle of the picture it was taken from down low looking up. Actually was sitting lower than stock those tires were nearly 1" shorter than stock.

Here is a pic from the side on the same day showing the height.

I agree, I'm running the same 275/40/20.  What do you have on the front, 255/40/20?  Would a 305/35/20 be the same sidewall height as the front?

There is a guy on here that has the new 295/35/20 nitto's hopefully he puts up pics. I think these will be the bomb, the 285/30/20's I have are rubber bands and there are some pics of 295/40/20 floating around and they look huge.

are you sure those are 285's? those look freakin tiny!

if so, 335's would look perfect on those cars without it looking ginormous.

295/35/18's rear 265/35/18's front 

I know you guys are talking about the newer cars but just wanted to show you our old classic with some big tires and wheels.  Yeah it's sitting a little high in the back but we like the stance, the new springs will eventually settle down some soon.

WOW, yeah I hope so, cuz that ride looks rough as hell. I had 275/35/18's and the ride was terrible compared to 275/40/17's and that's why they got sold! They look hot as heel with a bigger rim, but the roughness wan't worth it to me
