What tires on 8.5 x 20" and 9.5 x 20"?

thats what i was told for the coupe

285 is pretty wide for the rear of the coupe... I would have said 275 at the most...

It's not easy to get tires in 20", not every brand has them and most brands don't have 265/25 or 275/25 for the 20"

Dont think I've seen 265/25 or 275/25 yet, so 285/25 is pretty much the only choice in the rear with 25 profile.

I would say yes the 245/30 & 285/25 setup is the best option. it may seem wide but if you are running a 33-35mm offset you should be perfect.

245/285 is the setup u gotta go for

Ok, thanks guys for helping me out.

One more question, does such wide tires have an effect on acceleration or top speed? It's hole different than my stock rims with 225/255 on 19" and my car is only a 320 d with 177 hp...
