Front Wheels look bigger than back

Why did you go with 20" 8.5 front (245/35/20) and 20" 10 back (275/30/20)? Be honest with you, I would have went 20x9.5 (265/35) & 20x11 (315/30). I wouldn't go

You want the tires to look nasty and aggressive looking, but still sexy looking as well. Given your 20x10 size I would recommend going to 295/30 at least if not 305/30.
