I'm assuming this is for your 08?

Yea, no track duty. I just want a good solid handling tire, and one for the rear that fills the wheel well up nicely. I have 255's up front right now and they look decent. But 285's out back are kind of slanted. They are just crap Nankangs...

I hate to say it but your options are pretty limited. I would suggest running 245/40-20s up front and 275/35-20s in the rear but you said the 285s look streched? What are the aspect ratios on your currect sizes?

Just in case...

Right now the rears are: 285/30-20. Yea the side wall kind of slants in. I dont know if its just the brand of the tire or what. I have read that BFG's run big and nittos run small. I mean, they dont look bad if i have to go back with the size it wont make my world fall apart i was just wondering what my options were.

I'm thinking the 275s won't look as streched since they have a taller profile. Is your car lowered? Are you happy with the current wheel well gap?

Yea it's lowered, and the gap it has now doesnt bother me.
