Best Tire and Wheel Spacer

So I have an m6 Gran coupe. I’m not interested in lowering at the moment, not until I move in the next year or so. Believe it or not, the only driveway I’ve ever scraped on is my own, it’s super steep, not ideal for car enthusiast lol.

I also don’t want to buy new wheels and like the look of my factory 601m comp package wheels powder coated gloss black. Those wheels are a 20x9.5 front and 20x10.5 rear. My tires are stock size MPS4s, which is 265/35/20 front and 295/30/20 rear.

So, since I’m not lowering it and I don’t wanna buy new wheels, what’s the widest tire I can run and what size wheel spacer should I get with that tire to be flush?

To break down that question a bit more:

For the fronts, do I keep stock size tires? Is there any benefit to going to 275s? Any negatives? I’m guessing 285s won’t fit can somebody confirm this.

I was told wheel spacers in the front can cause a lot of issues so should I just not bother with front wheel spacers?

In the rear I was told 305/30/20 is the best size to run and 315s aren’t really available with a good aspect ratio on MPS4s for the stock wheels, is this true?


Without lowering, what’s the best size spacer to run in the rear with 295/30s? With 305/30s?
