Tires for Rohana RC7 f 20x9 +20, r 20x10 +25

Used factory tire sizes originally, 245/45 and 275/40, but would like to go wider with the next set of tires, which I will be needing soon. Also considering lowering springs, probably just an 1” to 1.25” BMR or similar.

Any experience with whether a 295 or 305 would work for the rear taking the +25 offset into account? The wheel looks to sit pretty flush at stock height.

Likely go with a 275 for the front.

Thanks in advance.

305 is doable, however it is a little wide for a 20x10.

295 would be better. But, the tire hight difference between the front and rear might be too much and throw codes.

I had 275/40/20 on the front on my 9's and 315/35/20 on my 10 inch rears, not sure what the offset was but they were American Racing VN805 BLVD's. You could look those up to see. The fronts were just inside the fenderwell and the rears were a tad inside the fenders and I am lowered 1.25. Good luck sir.

Thanks, yes that helps. Looks like your offset on the 10 inch wheel was +38. If I did my conversions and geometry correct, I think that translates into your 315’s having right at 4.8” of tire from the mounting face of the wheel to the fender side of the rim. With my offset, that means I could likely do a 295, but it would be pushed out another 0.1 inch as compared to yours.

I am running the same size wheel with almost the same offsets. I have 275/40 and 315/35. I am not lowered but from what ive researched you should be fine with a 1" spring.
