Nissan 370Z Forum - View Single Post - What tires (sizes and recommendations) 20x9 20x11

I am wanting to replace my tires. The rear are 275/30/20 Pilot Sport A/S and they are incredibly loud. I cant tolerate it anymore so while I'm at it, I want to go with a wider tire.

However, I simply CANNOT fit much larger if any than my current 245/30/20 up front due to the offset of the wheels. The offsets are 20x9 +8 and 20x11 +5 and I am on H&R springs.

I'm having a hell of a time getting a tire size figured that will work and look right. Right now the rear is more stretched than I'd like. I thought about going to a 285/30 but I'm concerned about the difference in size between the front and rear pissing off the vdc and braking.

Seems that a 305/25/20 would be ideal but I'm afraid its going to look too goofy being .5" shorter than stock...

Thoughts?
