You can not fill the wheel wells by selecting a taller tire you have to lower the car.
The perfect size is a 245/45/20 which was on the Concept 300C, however, no one makes that size yet. I speculate that the 300 SRT-8 will have 245/45/20 up front and a 275/40/20 in back like the Concept.

Isnt that the concept car in the pics a few posts back? It has 275 40 20 front and back.
I did find a few places selling 45 the Pirelli are 45 but they say there summer tires. I want all season. I found one P274 45 20 that might work but again summer tires.
It wasnt my tire guy that picked the size it was his guy on the phone that said there putting those on 300. I thought it was a little small myself but we didnt know it till it was on.
What about Sport tuck tires the 265 and 275 are both that.
