tires on SRT Design

My 2007 300c SRT DESIGN came with 20" wheels and 245/45's all around. Can I fit 275/55's on the rear using the stock 20" SRT Design wheels?

yeah you could mount them on the rim but i think there to tall. 275/40 is about the same diameter so your speedometer would be ok to.

too tall to fit without scraping or too tall because of the speedometer inaccuracy?

Also, I wonder what effect these oversized rear tires would have on the electronic stability program?

bad news!

275/40/20 will not fit a SRT Design rim. Minimum wheel width is 9.0 inches for those that make a 275/40/20 tire. SRT Design rim is 20x8.0 inches.
