Default 20x11 tire options??

I know Michelin makes the 335/30/20, any experiences with this tire? I have 20x11 on order, and was going with 265/35/19 up front; plan on tubbing and looking at tire options, thoughts? Thanks!

20x11 won't require tubbing.
265/35/19 on the front is too tall.
335/30/20 on the rear is too tall.

Currently, your best option is a 265/30/19 or 275/30/19 on the front, and a 305/25/20 on the rear.

If you WANT to tub the car, get 20x12's and go with the 345/25/20.

Thanks, have you heard of any issues with the 20x12/345 set-up and rubbing even with a tub?
