Default Tire Size

Hello All,

It has been a very long time since I posted anything on the forum. I needed some hlep on figuring out what tire sizes I need for new rims I purchased. The front wheels are 19x9.5 and the rears are 20x10.5. I was thinking for the front to go with a 275x30 19 and 285x30 20 for the rears. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks again

Sounds like a plan if you can find tires in those sizes. Wider on back would allow a bigger size wall. You don't want too thin--it will be a rough ride.
