Your opinions on tires, please.

I'm about to purchase some 20s. My options in tires are Goodyear 275/50/20 or 285/40/20. Which is better? The rim is 20 x 8.5 Thanks in advance.

get the 40 series...the others will be too much sidewall.

I have the 295/40/20's ...the tire looks well placed on the 20" rims. Why not get 295's ? The Goodyear HP Ultra will fit on the 8.5" rim.
