Does 315/25 on 20 inch tyre exists ???

The car that I am buying has Champion 20x11 wheel with 305/25 at the back...I think that profile is too small and narrow for such big wheels... and for our roads...

I know most of the tuners here put 325/25 at the rear on 20i wheels... but on wider rims...this way you get higher porfile and better grip and hook up...and that waht I want as well...

Anyone knows if such tyres exists, I've search tireracks and didnt find anythings...I think it can fit on 11 wide wheel...or not ???

315/25/20 - Toyo T1R's. Tirerack doesn't sell Toyo's.

You can try discount tire.

Toyo makes a 315/25/20 - the T1R I believe. I also think you would be fine with 325 on an 11 inch wheel.

Champion puts on 325/25/20 on their wheels 11 inch. unless they don't have them in stock. The 325/25/20's are not exactly easy to get especially in PS2's.

Thanks guys...are you shure about that ???

My car has Contis Sport Contact 3 245/30 front and 305/25 rears

So I should go an get rear set of TOYOs or 305/25 rear is fine ???

I dont know should I do...keep as it is and when they wear out put 325 or stay with 305...less weight better perfomance in straightline

RUS you seem to be focused only on straight line which is okay but the quality of this car is more than for just a 1/4 drag race.

I would keep the tires to wear them out. The 305's are better for the 11"s rims than 325's in my opinion. You won't get much more grip out of them going with a 325/25/20.

325 on 11 inch is alot, original 996TT have 295 on 11.5 inch.
305 on 11 is ok but above that is to stretch the limit in my opinion.

Keep in mind not all tire manufacturers are the same. Some 325s are larger than others. Here is a Pirelli 325 on Techart 11"............no issues.

Thanks but I am worrying more about how thin those side wall on 305/25...I dont want to destrpy those wheels the ast time I go out with a car...roads are not that good over here...so I am definatley gong to switch to 315/25 or 325...

Can any wheels expert chime inn...there seems to be confusion...some people inlcuding ME dont think that 11s would accomadate 325s and some say they will...what is the best solution for 11s...I will definately change the rear tyres...I think I can go 325/25 Contis but I thinkg they would be too wide for 11s or go for 315 Toyo which should fit...

Im sure you can squeeze the 325 on there, but the 305 or 315 is a better option. For example, the Pirelli 325/25/20 is designed for a 12" wheel, but you arent supposed to go narrower than a 11.5" wheel.

Michelin PS2 specs for 325/25-20 recommend rim width 11.5 to 12.5
