I got a really good deal on a set of wheels.
20 inch staggered wheels 20x9 front and 20x 10 1/2 for the rear.
I need some help with some tire sizes. 275 vs. 285 for the rear, and some suggestions for the front.

Is the proper size to retain OE outside diameter but people on this forum run 245/35/20 275/30/20 all the time w/o issues. You can go 285/30/20 in the rear as well. To be honest, I'm surprised you can run 20x9 without rubbing issues. Did you buy off an M5?

Naa, The wheels are after market. The guy that I bought them from had them on a 530 with no rubbing.
