fattest I've seen run in person was a 295...didn't really look that bad either. Just plenty of protection for curbing.

How about a 275-35 on 20x10.5 with offsets +20. Aggressive offset without stretching it

This is the look that I'm trying to go for. I want to be flush, I just think the look of stretched tires is silly

LMAO no. I can appreciate what you did, and your wheels are amazing, and so is the way the rest that your car is put together. Stretched tires just aren't for me.

SlammedG37S had 305/25 on his 10.5" rear Vossens. Id love to run the same width but I'm already rubbing with my 285/30.

How is he doing it? I'd love to run a 305 if it didn't rub that much!

305/25 is much thinner than (less overall diameter) than a 285/30 tire.
I can probably put 305/25/20 on my GT30's. Id have to trim the bracket and probably raise the rear a bit.
