295/40R20

About 295/40R20
295/40R20 is less common as a factory fitment but is available as an aftermarket size, so SKU selection is narrower than mainstream OEM sizes. At 29.29″ overall diameter, 295/40R20 turns 689 revolutions per mile, which is the reference point the factory speedometer and odometer were calibrated against. The 40% aspect ratio gives it a low-profile sidewall that delivers sharp steering response but transmits road imperfections. The 20″ rim pairing is typical for luxury SUV and performance-oriented platforms, so compatible wheels are easy to source new or used. Going one step shorter to 285/40R20 drops diameter by 1.08%, which stays within the ±3% fitment safe zone for most vehicles. Stepping up to 305/40R20 adds 1.08% diameter — also inside the safe window, with marginally taller ride height. If you are shopping for a direct replacement, any tire within roughly ±0.7″ of the 29.29″ stock diameter (about ±2% in percentage terms) will keep ABS, TPMS, and odometer readings inside the vehicle's designed tolerance.
