tires stick out too far
I just got a set of 20x8.5 wheels with 4 5/8 bacs spacing,with worn out 305/50/20 tires,problem is the front tire sticks out 1 3/4 to 2" beyond the factory fender flare.the back look nice,nice and flush with flare.what size tire would be better in this situation?I would like to stick with a 30 to 31"ish tall tire.

Thanks bro
That 305 has a 12" section width, you might go to a tire with approx 10.5" section width, that would help alot, maybe a 265/50-20, about a 10.9" section width and approx 30.5" tall, also go to a more rounded profile tire, one thats less blocky on the transition from sidewall to tread, bfg g-force kdw's are like this
