Wanted to ask 1le specific folks. Looking to buy a 2nd set of wheels with some all season tires for fall and spring. Whose running 285or275/35/20 and 305/35/20. After searching I'm seeing some conflicting opinions. Anyone running 35 series and have some pics?

No one. Why would you do this?

[mjk3888]

No reason to do this in my mind. It's only going to cause fitment issues and throw the speedo calibration off.

It's an aspect ratio. Not a set number.

Because it's a common size for all season tires. 305/30/20 isnt

I'm aware it's a percent of the width. 35 vs 30 sidewall on stock widths is obviously a taller tire. Which is why I wanted to know if anyone's done it on a 1le.

Summer time the stock size summer tires will be on. But fall and spring it's cold up north and summer tires get scary

I'd be looking for a used set of non-1LE 6th gen wheels if I were you for fall/winter/early spring. Plenty of M+S options in narrower sizes... plus way cheaper.

That was my second thought. Buy 2ss size wheels and tires.

Best advice imo ^^^ Also you'd likely have many aftermarket choices as well. Either way, I'd go with skinnier rim/tire choice for better winter performance and less cost.

Edit: Nitto makes an all season tire in 295/30/20 and u could run it square on stocker rims.

I have a SS and I do. You will have to reroute wiring harness rear drivers side. I rubbed for 5 miles, then never again for 30k miles. I talk to be bfgoodrich and they do not have a schedule when they are gonna make 305/35/20 again. I hope soon because I need two new rears ready for winter. I just bought some summer tires yesterday until bfgoodrich cones back in stock. *I have been waiting months for them to come back in stock*

Thank you for all the info.

Last question. Stock front SS tire size is 245/40/20 which is 27.72".
Stock 1le 285/30/20 is 26.73".

Run that or go with 245/35/20 is 26.75" ?


Rear SS 275/35/20 is 27.58"
Rear 1le 305/30/20 is 27.2"
