I'm just wondering if the profile will be ok to roll on for a few months. They are used tires with a lot of tread left from my current wheels that's all. I'd rather reuse them for now then try to sell them for nickels and dimes.

that's quite a difference. ~4mph reading difference too. I guess I'll have to figure something out. possibly order some rear tires instead now. since the fronts are the same size

, 275/30-20 will have too high of a diameter, and the chance of experiencing rubbing will be higher

Do you think that you'll have to have D roll your fenders with that setup?
