After reading & searching this thread, I deducted that on the110 P400 with air suspension the 265/60R20 or 275/55R20 should both fit with no rubbing and no spacers needed.
I mounted the Falken Wildpeaks 265/60R20 at4w recently and it was all happy days, until someone else mentioned that it was not recommended to mount due to rubbing.
Then low & behold, I discovered an ever so slight rubbing in access mode at full lock. Towards the inside at the rear and near the bottom of the wheel well inside cover.
Not that it bothers me at all as this is a situation that seldom occurs.
But thought I would mention it here as it is not an 'all clear' in this size for Falkens at least.

I’m running the old AT3W in that size and I have zero rubbing. Granted, I’m on OEM Style 516 wheels from an L319, which has a different offset to the OEM 20” L663 wheels.

Will probably go with the OEM 255/60R20 KO3s next, even though they still have subpar wet performance. Better than the KO2, but worse than the Falken AT3 and AT4. I think 275/55R20 will be too wide for these rims and cause rubbing. Luckily I still have a lot of tread left on my AT3Ws.
