My daily commute is the 134 and 210. Occasionally drive around the 10, 605, 5, 60 71. I guess that covers where the car was driven at the past year. What tires sizes do you wrap your 20s in? 245/30/20F 275/25/20R or 245/35/20F 275/30/20R. It seems 245/30/20 275/25/20 are closer radius and diameter to the tires I have on now (17s). If I run 245/35/20F 275/30/20R for better rim protection, will it look like I'm running on 19"?
Also, if you're running on 245/35/20F 275/30/20R, please post pics.
Thanks guys in advanced!

Recommended sizes for our cars with 20's is F-245/30/20 and R-295/25/20
I personally wouldn't run 25 series tires, they are too thin for me.
I have F-245/30/20 and R-275/30/20, works for me

For the non sports, I usually run 245/35/20 and 275/30/20.
If its a sport, I run either a 245/30/20 and 285/25/20 or a 245/30/20 and 275/30/20

245/30/20 is about .3% of original and 275/30/20 is about 4.0% of otiginal, will experience any ABS, tire pressure or other errors?
The percentage are guesses from what I remember but around the ballpark.
