Anyone running 255 45 20s?  I am considering a set and was wondering if anyone had clearance issues.
Thanks in advance  :)

I believe a few people are running them, and I think Mike (bpd) is running an even larger tire, I don't believe anyone has had clearance issues with the 255's.

I have been running the 255/45 20's on my front axle for well over 1 year now, daily driven, w/o any issues whatsoever.

Likewise, for that exact same time period, I've been running 275/40 20's on the rear axle, again, w/o any issues whatsoever.

They'll work fine.

How wide of a tire can you run on the factory wheels? Is 265/ (45 or 35) possible without rubbing?
