Default Wheel Help

With:
275/30 19's
295/40 20's

What kind of wheels could I run? I think I would be fine with a 9-10 inch wide in the front, 10-11.5 wide in the rear? Would those work okay or look bad in that configuration? I have the 19's already, thus thinking about buying some 20's and doing a set of wheels. Thanks.

Surely that 40 profile is a typo? That wheel/tire combination would be way too big for the rear - almost 2.5" taller than stock.

Try plugging different sizes into the online Tire Size Calculator. After you click the Submit Tire Sizes button it will provide the recommended rim width range for each tire size.
