Backspacing on the wheels isn't optimal and they would rub.

What size did you go with? I've been thinking about those in 275/40 for my next set of tires. I'm wondering how well they perform so let us know when you get them on

Went with the 245/40/20s. I really hated to step down on the width, but now I don't have to worry about them rubbing the rear fenders on bumps.

Of the current 275/35/20s, or the new 245/40/20s? Sidewall is the same, or extremely close, the width is different though.

I meant how the width of the 245/40/20 is. Do they look a lot more narrow than the 275's?
