I personally would not go with this size Toyo Proxes S/T rear tire. This tire has in theory 6" sidewalls which result in a theoretical unloaded tire OD of 32" which is almost 2-3/4" (9.3%) larger than the OEM stock P295/40R20 rear tire. Heck, it's almost 2-1/4" larger in OD than my P285/35R22 rear tire. Most tire vendors recommend staying under 3% oversize on the OD when changing tire sizes. Besides, I wouldn't want my SSR to look like "Bigfoot". Just my $0.02.
By the way, there is a Toyo Proxes S/T tire in the P295/40R20 size (same as stock) and with the same load rating of 106.
