I have a 98 Millenia and want to put some 20's on it. I know it can be done with no rub but what are the biggest tires that wont rub? 275/35/20 or would 245/35/20 be better?

you may get rubbing with either, unless you roll the fenders

The 245's would be 3 cm skinnier and have less sidewall height than the 275's. Thanks for coming out BHR

Anything smaller than 245 would be skinnier. Don't know if you know but that number is the width of the tire tread in millimeters. I'm not sure if you can get anything skinnier for a set of 20 inch rims....I imagine you could. You'd have to phone up any tire shop and ask.
