Thoughts on these Ferrada FR2 wheels in matt bronze with glass black lip? 20x9 front and 20x10.5 rear. Want to run 265/40 front and a 285 rear with Eibach lowered springs but not sure yet if will fit. I prefer a bit more side wall for the racing look, plus it helps on our shitty Australian roads.
Those tires sizes probably won't work. If they do work your car will look like a monster truck.
265/45/20 is over 2 inches taller than the stock 225/40/19s.
The closest match for a 285 rear to go with that 265/40 front would be a 285/35/20. That would make make your rear tire a half an inch shorter than the front. If you went up to a 285/40/20 it would make the rear .7 inches taller than the front. A 285/40/20 would be a mammoth 3 inches taller than the stock rear tire. It's a truck/SUV size.
For a visual comparison here's what a 285/40/20 would look like next to the stock tire.
The wheels are nice but you really need to rethink your tire sizes.
Also check out some reviews of the bronze/black painted wheels. They have issues with paint adhesion as they just paint the machined/chrome wheels. Maybe they figured out the issue by now.
Edit: Looking now it looks like they deleted all the negative reviews with images showing the paint flaking off.. hmm
Most people running those wheel sizes on here are using 255/35/20 front and 285/30/20 rear. If I were going to run 20s I'd do 295/30 in the back because 285 can look a little stretched and it more closely matches the front's height.. but im not 100% sure that would fit.
