Let's keep this thread alive. I'm pretty sure there is more people out there that could post on there experience with 20" rims or 19".
I want to go with 245/30/20 front 9" and 295/25/20 rear 10.5" on eibach pro kit. On a 2005 545 but don't want to rub or rolled my fenders. I will love to go up to 35/30 series but I believe I will rub for sure. Anybody Running these setups?

Hey 5th element. To give you an answer we need your wheel offset. With an offset of around 20 the 245/30/20 front 9" and 295/25/20 rear 10.5" on eibach pro kit will work 100%. You could even go with a 255/30 up front. I have a similar set up with 9x19 and 10.5x19. With 255/35/19 and 295/30/19 slammed on coilovers. I had the same tire set up with 30-25 series on my 20's. The 35-30 series with those wide rims will rub 100% unless you go 235/35 and 275/30 with rolling fenders.

It will drag something behind, so wheel arches should be rolled a few millimeters.
