i've seen a few fullfats with these size tyres on and they do look a bit to small in relation to the car..and you'll find the speedo will be out as well mick..

I've got 275/45 20's on my L322 and 275/40 20's on the P38 4.6 turbo all Kumho KL12, handling and ride comfort seem ok on both to me.

I have got 295/40/20 on mine and I used that link and it said 19mm different on the 255. But are the 255 the same diameter as the standard 18 in wheels as I have one as a spare and I'm not sure if I could use it if I had a puncture?

We find the 275/45x20 about spot on for FFRR, this would be our advice and most are 110 load rating. Andy....
