Pics of Velgen VMB5 on 285s?

Looking for close up pics of Velgen VMB5's on 285/25/20 tires. I currently have 275's, and would like to see how much more the tire covers the lip of the rim. thank you!!

What suspension are you on? The 285/25/20 will fit with no issues but it is a very thin tire.

That's what I would like to see is the close up of the sidewall compared to 275/30.

I'm on M Sport suspension..I believe it's .4 inches lower than stock. I saw a pic of the 285/25/20...sidewall is very thin, and he said it still didn't protect his rim totally.

Yeah, it's a very thin tire. You shouldn't have any issues with rubbing, it is a thin tire so the ride quality won't be the same as a thicker tire.
