Default Buying new wheels in couple days... advice needed asap

Hey guys
OK i am ordering Iforged wheels I am going to run 19x9.5 in the front with 265/30 tires...
For the rears I will run at least a 20x11 wheel with the 305/25 tire... I would love to go wider in the rears...
Does anybody know if a 315 tire is available for a 20" wheel?
If i go with a 20x12 wheel i am thinking of going with the 345/25 tire I know I would have to run a minitub but then I couldn't run my OEM wheels and tires when i go to the track Also with 345s in the rears w/ a mini tub does it stick out? my car is slammed and raising it is not an option...
Thanks guys

Don't know the answer to your questions, but those would be some huge wheels and tires on the car. If you do this, post some pics. You may want to call the Tire Rack and see what they have in terms of tires in the sizes you want.

You are stuck with 305 or 345's. I think even mini tubbed a 345 on a 12" will still stick out maybe 1/2".The 345's would look bad though!!! The 305's aren't to bad.I still miss the 335 steamrollers I use to have.Iforgeds are sweet wheels.Going to get a set myself one of these days!!!!!
