    265/30 tires on 20 x 10.5 wheels?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I’ve done some searching and consulted with the in-house gurus but I wanted to see if anyone is running 265/30 tires on 10.5” wheel? Ideally I want to stick with Michelin PSS tires on my summer setup (20x10.5) but the PSS’s are on back order across the country with no real ETA’s. My only option to stay with a PSS is to go 265/30/20 with a stretch. Is anyone running PSS 265/30’s on 10.5 wheels?

    Def mild at most. Especially with a PSS.

    Thanks for including a picture. I'm on my phone right now so I can see the tire too well. Do you know what brand that is?

    I've been looking for a picture of a PSS with the 265/30 on a 10.5 to see exactly what the stretch looks like. I'm personally not a huge fan of stretched tires but a mild stretch doesn't bother me. I think that I'm going to play it safe and run a 285/30 tire.

    I had this same thought (265 PSS) but ended up going wider as I didn't want to stretch either.

    Where did you find PSS in 265/30/20? I could run that on my 20x10 ET 25s right?

    Yes, perfect for a 10" wheel.
