Thanks for the tip, I'll check it out.. I'm at the point that, I might change my order to 22's, the tires are cheaper.. what's another 600 for rims, when 20's tire are way more than that. Think my rims will be here in a couple of weeks. wow, I'm in a jam...

Not the exact sizes you are looking for, but this is what I've found:

Nitto NT05
275/40/20, 315/35/20

Nitto INVO
275/40/20, 315/35/20

The problem is that not many manufacturers make a 265/40/20, other than Pirelli and the lame Goodyear RS-A, and then finding a matching rear tire is even more difficult.

If you can run slightly wider tires than what you posted, which is definitely do-able with the correct offset wheels, the 275s and the 315s should fit.

Jon, if I go 315/35/20.. How does that look on 10.5 rim.. should I have gotten a 11" rim for a 315 tire ?

Nitto suggests a 10.5-11.5 wide wheel for a 315, and the section width on a 315 is 12.4". Working off of that measurement, and taking into consideration that a 10.5" wheel measures 11.5" overall, you're only going to have 0.45" of tire bulge on each side of the rim, which to me, is more than acceptable. I'm a muscle car guy, and I like to see some tire bulge, and not stretched tires on too wide a rim (like the Vdub crowd).
