hey again everyone. im back at that crossroad where i need new set of tires. i need suggestions on what kind of brand and sizes i should get. here are my specs :

wheels: 20X9.5 +35 R for the front and 20X10.5 +37 O for the rear
suspension: eibach pro kit

the first set of tires i had were the falken fk452's. the sizes were 255/35/20 for the front and 285/30/20 for the rear. these lasted for quite a while, around 15 months to be exact. my only concern with the size is that the rims stuck out slightly more than the tires (the look im trying to avoid). no issues with noise, no rubbing and were fairly smooth.

the second set im currently on are nitto invos. sizes are 275/30/20 for the front and 305/25/20 for the rear. have had these for about a year now, and are pretty bald now. the sizes were more to my liking since the tires stuck out just a little bit more than the rim. but they were too much like rubber bands...i actually just looked at my wheels in the back right now and saw that one of my rims were bent! #$^*&$!!! the back left tire also rubbed a little bit when id hit a hump on the road.

so my question is...what size tires/brand should i get now? i want to have meat, without having rubber bands. i know the profiles of tires differ with each brand, but im not a tire expert. i would appreciate any suggestions or feedback. thanks in advance!

 

I am running Sumitomo HTRZ III. I like them because the grip the road. Front tires lasted and still going 3+ yrs now. The rears i been changing them out once a year.

 

255/35 and 295/30 should do fine. I think its middle ground your covering with these. How did you like the 275 in the front?

 

so i went ahead with 275/35 for the front (again), and 295/30 for the rear. thanks for the input guys. anyone have experience with the toyo proxes 4 plus's by any chance? i ended up ordering those. $1060 for all 4 mount and balanced. best price i was able to find. i hope these tires and sizes are to my liking. getting them installed in 2 weeks.
