I'd match the tires to the wheels and look for combinations that are close to the same tire diameter that you already have.

Don't worry about the weight. On the street it's not going to matter, and even for fairly serious timed competition it's not as big a factor as people like to think it is.


Either 245/45-20's on 20x9's or 275/40-20's on 20x10's are what I'd choose between.
