Anybody With 305 Tires on 10.5" Wheels

I am wondering if anybody has pics of 305/25-20 tires on 10.5" wide wheels, I would greatly appreciate any info in the look of the tire sidewall. And please state which kind of tire you have. Thanks.

Here's one example of 305's on a 10.5, looks perfect imo.

The poke and stretch look looks ridiculous (imo)

I'm actually impressed w/ the look. Its a small height at 20 so it may be a little rough, but pllllenty of protection on the outter lip of the wheel from damage.

305 will fit a 10.5 with the sidewall pretty even to the rim. Did you switch wheels? i remember your offset was pretty aggressive

Yeah I did, I went with Forgestar F14's. Right now I still have my 275/30's on them and they are stretched... not really into that look.

My offset now is 38, before I had 20. Stuck out too far.

That's why I am asking. I can stuff my setup now and have at least a finger gap. I think I might just go with 295/30.

How do you guys think a 305/25/20 tire will fare on stock sport suspension?

Should be no rubbing whatsoever right?

The drop only affects how often you rub. If you're going to rub you'll rub at stock height or slammed. I had 305's on a +42 rear offset 10.5" wide wheel. I don't think that wide of a tire would look right at stock height. Shave the bracket and you should be alright.
