What tires should I run on a 22x10.5 square setup?

[ryanjoe13]

Looking to put the 22x10.5 Niche Targas on my 2008 4.8i

Wondering what people suggest for tire size? I'm looking to get the beefiest tires possible in order to provide most ride comfort and also fill up the wheel well... That way I don't have to mess with stock suspension.

Got a few brand recommendations from my friend, any input would be appreciated:

Conti DWS
Nero Scorpian
Evo V12

40 series is too big, so looks like the 35 series is best bet

285/35/22 all around?

I've seen that 285 might be a little thick for the front... is that true?

275/35/22 for front?

Decided on 285/35/22 square setup with the Yokohama Parada Spec-X.

Should I go ET20 or ET30?

[ryanjoe13]

ET20 would extend an extra 51mm from stock (1m more on inner clearance)

ET30 would extend an extra 41mm (9mm less on inner clearance)

I'd love to do the ET20 to achieve the wheels being out towards the fender as much as possible. But I'm not sure if it will rub in the front? I can't find anything on the forum on 285/35/22s with different offsets.

Perfect tire sizing.

That is what I am currently running.
I would do +30 front / +20 rear

Nice, do you happen to have any pictures Quantum?

I'm assuming no rubbing issues in the front for you?

I want to be able to rotate the tires.

Do you think ET20 in the front will be ok?
