305's or 315's

Anybody running 305's or 315's on a 20" wheel have rear shot pics? Trying to decide what to go with. My car is lowered on Eibachs and ill be putting rohana rc22's in 20x10 front and 20x11 rear. Want to make sure they don't rub or stick out too far. Pictures would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Very nice. That extra .5" on the 11.5 looks like it makes a huge difference.

I spoke to Rohana about 20x11 for the rear and they said the wheel will stick out at least a half an inch passed the wheel well unless you have a lot of neg camber and undersized stretched tires. A forum member on here did it with a 245 on an 11 inch wide RC22! IMO I do not like the stretched tire low rider look..They also told me the 20x11 isn't available until maybe late June.. FYI

Mine are 11 wide and do not stick out. Factory Reproductions are using the oe offset. Even the 1LE and ZL1 have 11 wide rears. Maybe Rohana cant figure that out. and a 245 on a 11 wide wheel is UNSAFE

It depends more on the wheel back spacing, not the tire size. 315's will fit great, on the right wheel.

So if I ran a 295 or 305 stretched, I wouldn't run into the issue of it sticking out? Or would I need to go even narrower than that?

You need wheels with correct offsets.....then worry about tire size.

A 305 would not really be stretched on an 11 inch wheel. Like other members said its a matter of the proper offset. Someone may be able to machine the wheel to a proper offset but they would have to have experience doing so with this particular wheel. It might not even be possible. This is the reaon I am going with RC22's in 20x10 all around.

This is what a 20x11 on the rear looks like with a stretched tire and a lot of neg camber. I personally don't like the look and it is dangerous. Notice how far the wheel sticks out even with the neg camber. A proper fitting tire would def stick out beyond the wheel well.

Your wheels are not made by Rohana and obviously have the proper offset. I was advising him that the Rohanas will not fit the same.. I was not stating that any 20x11 will not fit properly.
