Using a tire size calculator, the front tires would be ~10% different (larger) from stock; the rears almost 15% different (larger) from stock. Between them, the fronts and rears show a 7.5% difference... Too much!

The best match I could find close to your fronts was 255/45/20, rears 315/35/20. Even at that the rears are ~1" smaller. A better match for the rears is 245/45/20 fronts.

See the tire sizes above. They are probably special order as few, if any, tire shops will carry those sizes.

What tires were you trying to install??

Waaay too big, 255/40/20 is max in regards to the diameter that will fit in the front
