I think people run 295/25/20 for the Rear more. Since its so thin, they do a wider tire.

Correct. This is what member poleposition runs on his 550 with his GTS wheels.

I ran 245/30/20 and 285/25/20 on 20x8.5 and 20x10 on my first set of tires.
They looked great, but I had to be cautious with my driving. Rolling on rubber-bands.

Here's a side shot after my first mod, wheels
