315 on Stock 20" rims?
I am looking to get NITTO NT05's 275's in the front and 315's in the rear. Will these tires fit on the stock 20" rims? The car is also lowered about 1-1.25 inches.

Absolutely not.
I mean, will they "fit"... probably. Will it be safe, HELL NO. Would you squeeze your foot into a shoe that was too small? Well thats what you are doing "squeezing" those tires on wheels that are too small. Creates a slew of problems and the tire could pop off the wheel. |

They will fit... But absolutely NOT recommended...
You need at least a 10.5" wide wheel for some 315 tires... 11's would be best.

I've seen 305s, but not 315s.

Are there any companies that sell rims + NITTO NT05's with no interest for 12 months?

Also if I get a 10.5 in the rear (on 315) and 10.0 in the front (on 275). Will it work?

Yes, 275/40/20's will fit on 10" wheels. That's what I run up front. You need to make sure your wheel offsets are correct to ensure no rubbing as well as to keep the tires inside the wheel wells.

I believe the min recommended wheel width for the 275/40 is 9"
