Tire Size Q for those with experience...

[Lincoln Luebbe]

What size tires would I need to run with a 20X8.5 and 20X9.5 set of wheels. Wheels are guaranteed to fit a S-Type Jaguar. Correct me if I am wrong, but that means they will fit my LS no problem. I know the 18's that are staggered fit just fine, why not 20's with a smaller tire?
245/35/20 for the 20X8.5?
275/30/20 for the 20X9.5?

got s pic of the wheels? The width sound right. try going to tirerack.com to check OEM tire sizes. I know there is a 20in option for the newer s type R.

Take the width of the wheel in inches, add 1.5, and multiply it by 25.4, then round up to the nearest size. There are 25.4mm or 2.54cm in one inch. The width of the tire is measured in millimeters.

Here is the link to the rims...
They are the design off of an XK8. The rim is called "Senta".
