Got a question guys. Im about to order a new rear set of rubber for zdayz. Now my setup is a little messed up right now because when i got my wheel tire package i went 245/40 up front and 295/30 rear. So my sidewalls are off ya know. To even out the sidewalls im considering stepping down to a 285 in the rear so I can do a 35 sidewall. Now my question is, and Im not sure if anyone has a good answer but Im runnin an 11 inch wide wheel in the rear. Is a 285 gonna look stretched at all. I suppose it shouldnt as its only slightly smaller than the 295, just lookin for an opinion.

i see. when comparing your hankooks to other tires (say stock RE050's) do they appear wider or narrower or about the same?

my 275 DW's appear much wider than the RE050's in the same size. even so, on 10.5" width wheels they have stretch. not a hellaflushatoilet stretch, but a sports car stretch.

Yeah, I think Im just gonna order another pair of 295/30's even though the rear sidewalls are smaller than my fronts. What are negative points to this, if there are any??
