Tires and Wheels will a 295/30/20 work on the back of a 2015 5.0 Sedan?

[Tried&True]

I ordered some 20x9 +38 and a 20x10.5 +45 Tire rack says I should use 255/35/20 and 295/30/20 on stock height. I have seen lots of guys running 245&255 up front and most use 285/30/20 in back. I would greatly appreciate any assistance. I tried searching but using 295 size seems like all I got was people talking about coupe sizes.

You'll be fine with 295/30/20 in rear. I was running 285/30, my '15 was lowered and I was pretty sure I could fit in 295's

That is good to hear. I hope someone who is running that set-up will chime in.

These tires are MASSIVE. How much are you spending?

I went with 255/35/20 & 285/30/20 went with a Sumitomo which I have used before and liked. Total to my door after $75 gift card rebate from tire rack. $557 to my door. I went with those sizes because I found another me.ber running the exact set-up. Same width wheels and same offsets.

Haha....not selling them. They'll be my winter set of wheels/tires. Besides ....the car is leased, so I need to keep them.

Has anyone tried with a 295? How did it go? Did you use a 10.5" wheel? What was the offset?

I have 295's on the rear of my '15 3.8L on a 20x10" wheel with a 45mm offset. No issues for me. I would think you should still be okay even with a 10.5" wheel. I am also lowered on Ark Performance GT-F springs.

How are the Kumho's riding?

No too bad. Very quiet at all speeds and even wear so far. The only thing is that they need to be set a 42psi which makes them quite firm.

With a 10.5" wheel, you might even be able to go with 305 tires. The advantage there is that there seem to be more options for a 305 tire. My guess is an 11" wheel will probably clear the fenders though.

Might have to play with the offsets though.

Glad you guys are sharing this. I need to go with a bigger size in the rear. My wheel lip is too exposed. That will be next time though. I just bought another set in the rear.
