Just lookin for some opinions and maybe experience you guys have had with a 35 sidewall on the L. The only way I have found to go wider in the tire department is to either go up from a 40 side wall or down to a 35. Im thinkin 45 with a 20inch rim might be just a little too big. But then again I dont like that look of all rim and no tire and really rough ride. Pics would help If you have any. Why did they stop making the nitto in 305/40/20!!!!

Personally, I think a 40 series 20" tire in a 295 width is about perfect on a 9" or less rim. A 35 is just too narrow a sidewall and looks out of place imo.

I run a 295x40 on 20" reps which is less than 1" taller than the factory 18"
45 series tires.

You're gonna have to suck it up and go with the 35! LOL I am running on a 295/30/23.. I think it looks sweet :p.. But yea.. either go up to a 315/35 or go down to a 295/40 and you'll be happy.. the 35 may be a bit too skinny for your liking..

I'm just gonna be stuck getting 295-40-20's again. They look perfect, I just wanted a wider tire for some more traction. I wish they made some better options for the 40 sidewall.
