Default Tire Size

Guys please give me some insight. I'm thinking about getting continental tires 225/35/20F 255/35/20R on NAD 3 wheels. I had 225/30 & 255/30 Pirelli's and I went through two pair of front tires because they kept splitting on the tire wall. Do you guys think this will be a good size?

I think you have to stick with 30 series with 20" rim.

I just want a tire that won't split on me. Any suggestions? Maybe it was the type of pirelli tires I had on the car.

Decided to go with 225/35/20f 255/35/20r continental DWS. Hope this works, my last time buying tires. If doesn't work out, I'm going back to factory wheels.
