A 275/35/20 will be stretched to the max on a 9" wide wheel, not a good thing.

how is 275/35 stretched more than 275/45 doesn't the width remain the same just the sidewall change?

What are my other options if i want a lower profile over the 275/45's would going wider help like 295/45/20? has the lower profile look like the 275/35's???

If you want a good street look, those wheels would look great with my tires, or similar profile. I honestly can't remember my profile but I will look in the morning. You can see it in my SIG. These are 20x9 with a +13 offset. I think 255 50 r20. I actually ran in to a tad bit of rubbing with this offset, so a 19+ should be fine, I'm also lowered about 1.5-2" all around.

A 295/45/20 needs a 9 1/2" wide wheel at a minimum.

Thanks, do they seem a bit narrow to you or no?
