Nice VLE-1!!! I just purchased a set and trying to figure out what tires to get. How's the ride quality and is there any rubbing with your suspension? What tire brand are you using?

I'm planning on installing 235/30R20 Front and either 265/30R20 or 275/30R20 in the Rear.

Ive had an adventure trying to make these work. Started off with RSR downs got rubbing. I rolled all 4 fenders still rubbed. I purchased spc rear camber arms had to run negative 4 degrees so it wouldnt rub. I wore my rear tires in 4 thousand miles. First set of tires were falkens. Second set are now toyo proxes. So i ended up swapping out my down springs for RSR half springs. Still have a bit of rubbing going to have to rol fender in rear tad bit more.

sounds like you're offsets for your rear wheels are too aggressive.
and i noticed you're running 255/30/20 in the back. you can try to lower the side wall a bit by running a 25 series (255/25/20)

Did you have any rubbing in the front? I knew the RS-R Down was going to be an issue so that's why I went with the Half Down. How's the ride quality with 20 inch wheels? I'm currently waiting for my tires to arrive.
