Default Tire size with a 2/4

I have a 2007 Classic CC with a 4/6 on 20x8.5, +35 offset wheels. I'm thinking about going up to a 2/4. What tire size are you all running on a 2/4? I have been running this set up for the past year. I love the low look and it rides great, just getting tired of fighting the roads and parking lots, etc. The final straw was getting trapped in a parking lot with monster speed bumps. I'm sure it was fun for everyone that was watching. The current tire size is 275/45/20. I have seen a couple pictures of 265/50/20 and worried they been alright for the front but too short for the back. I had 285/50/20 all around before the lowering. I know that is too tall for the front but they might work for the rear??

iv been running 275/55/20 on 2/4 for a couple years with no problems, depending on your offset 285/50 would be better, im either going 285/50 or 275/45 soon

Thanks. Do you have any pictures? I had 285/50/20 on stock offset wheels before the lowering. These wheels are a +35 offset so it should bring the 285's inside the fender. I want the biggest tire in the rear just not too big. I am having it tuned on Saturday and would like to "tune" for the new size even though they won't be on there right away.
