What size are you running in the rear on what width rim? If you're not rubbing then there's not really a reason to change to 245/30/20 unless you want to be in spec to OEM.

I have Falken FK 452... 245/35/20 (very little rubbing haven't had a chance to roll the fenders yet). They are pretty quiet on the road...

I'm runnning the toyo T1r's also. those tires are great im running 35 series in the front had little rubbing issues, but i rolled the fenders instead of changing to 30 series. It all depends on the roads where you are!

Ratings on the T1R are pretty good.
I'm running Bridgestone RE960 and they ride pretty good. They don't come in 245-30 though.
For me, best tire in the world is Michelin PS2. Very pricey though.

Tirerack has some of the lowest prices on the market but usually, local shops chage more to install tires they didn't sell you. Some shopping around for installers who don't care about that issue is wise.

ps2 is good but just be ready for the wear, it's not pretty
