What Tires are the best for 20 inch rims
What Tires are the best for 20 inch rims.
I was thinking of the 265/50/20. What do you all think. I know the 275/45/20 are to much profile, even the 295/40/20 are the same. what can you tell me on the selection and which tire do you think would fit and look better.

Dre-
Have you looked on tirerack.com yet? They have a lot of reviews and specs for several brands. I did a quick search for 295/40/20 and found 8 to choose from here
Hope this helps. I kinda liked the looks of the BFG g-force and the pirelli scorpion zeros...

I really think you are splitting hairs. The only differences in the two sizes is about 1.2 inches in overall width, and the 265/50/20 will be will be just a tiny bit shorter. Both of those sizes of 20's have the same side wall height and are very comperable to stock. I'd say it would be hard to go wrong with either size, other than the added width may cause problems, but I don't know that for sure. You can enter sizes in this tire calculator and see what I mean.

Hey Dre. IMO, SUV's with big rims need a fatter profile tire to look right. Too 'rubber band' looks wierd. Are you doing a drop and tucking those under the fenders? Post pics man.
