Matte GM Nurbs but what tire size for a square setup??

I am wanting to go with 20x10 35+ offset Nurbs on all 4 corners (square setup)....However I'm unsure about what tire size is best suited for this setup? *Note: I do plan to do a 1" drop at some point in the near future

Would it be possible to run a 285/35/20 all around? I'd like to do the Michelin PSS with these.
Or would I be better off going with 275/40/20's in all 4 corners??

Does anyone have any experience with this setup? Pics would be helpful

I did 275/40s and had no issue.

I would stick to 285/40 or 275/40...IMO i wouldnt drop to the 35 profile

In my sig im running 20x10.5 +35 all around on 285/40/20 and im lowered... You will have no issues since your wheels are the same offsets as mine. you will have a little more than 6mm more clearance to your strut, and to your fender than I do

^^ just reread your post about doing a drop in the future- that changes everything… 35 is less sidewall, so I think on stock suspension it may not fill the wheel well all that great.. Then again, I could be going crazy since IIRC ZL1 and 1LE have 285/35 up front .

Its really all preference though, even though Im dropped, I like to have more tire… could be a product of me wanting protection on shitty NYC roads, and less fender gap

285/35/20 is what the 1LE runs all the way around. You won't have an issue with that at all, as long as you get the proper offset wheels.

But 315s look so good in the rear
