What model is your car, xi or non-xi? Also what is the offset of your wheels.

Typically most people running 20" on non-M use 275/30/20 for the rear. Also, depending on the tire make\model, some are more squared between the sidewall and thread and some are more rounded which rubs less.

Exactly correct. I have 20X10.5 rears with 275/30/20 Falken 452's on them. I have tried 285/30 and even the "recommended" 295/25 (scary thin), I also have my rear fenders rolled as much as I possibly can without flaring them. So far the 275's fit the best, no rub at all, and there is only a slight stretch to them.
