Looking good BL, but can we get a side shot?

Nice brad. That is a sweet wheel/tire set up you put together.

Thanks guys, I'll try and get a side shot soon.

Toxic, as far as the chrome accent, it's a bronze tinted machined edge so a bit more of a blend vs. straight silver. And I had Black 5 spokes prior and that sea-of-black kind of took away from the look at that point. I'm happy w/ that subtle break of the black

New set-up looks great, Brad. I thought that those 285's might be a bit wide for your 9-1/2" rear wheels, but from the looks of it the sidewalls seem to sit nice an flat. Great job!

Hey guys, I'm currently running Vossen VFS1 20x10.5 +45 in the rear with 285/30/20 Continental DWS. I'll be needing tires soon, and I'm contemplating going with the Michelin PSS in 295/30/20, but I'm cutting it close now with the 285's. I'm lowered on Swifts and Koni's. Anyone run this same size and offset with 295's? Any rubbing issues?

blnewt, I saw you were running 20x10 +45 with 295/30/20, but that's 6 mm inside of where I'm at now.



By the math, 295 would add 5 mm on each side, and I feel like there's room. Although not much lol. Just hoping someone has pulled this off without increasing camber. I think I'm at -2.2 right now.

Dagon68 ran 295s on 10.5+45 without issue, and IIRC he was at in-spec camber~

Might also give a look at the brand new Continental Extreme Contact Sport (they replaced the DW) getting great reviews~

My buddy's 295 on 10.5 + 40 I think?

I love the sidewall look of the 295 on a 10.5" wheels. I think I'm going to go for it, with those new Continental's that blnewt suggested.

Do it! 295 FTW!!! Just be sure to get aligned properly

Yeah, when I had my 295s on those old 20s it looked much better than the 285s that I had on them when I had a crushed sidewall and the only size I could find quickly (in Las Vegas NV) was a 285

So that would be a good plan!

I'm doing it. Ordered the tires today. They're gonna give me partial credit for my DW06's since they still have some life left. That sealed the deal for me.
