Anyway - I hope they work out.
I just got the Toyo Proxes 4's installed on mine this morning. 245 45R20 on the front, 275 40R20 on the back.
Final note: Contact patch does not get any larger with wider tires. It simply gets wider side-to-side, but shorter front-to-back. Total contact square inches is purely a factor of pounds of weight on the tire divided by psi in the tire.

your right - hard driving could cause the tire to unseat itself - you have to excuse me - i have a touring and i drive slow lol
