Question WK2 275/55/R20 Cooper Zeons?

Hey guys,
i've noticed a lot of guys in the states are running this size and this tyre on the 2011/12 grands and i was just wondering if anyone here is? has anyone had problems with this size or the zeons in general.
I saw on an American site that they sit quite close to the bolt on the suspension (not sure exactly what its called). Also, I used a tyre calculate and there is enough difference in the radius that there is about
a 5km/h inaccuracy from the speedo. If you go to a dealer will they re-calibrate the speedo or is it a tyre shop or somewhere else?
cheers guys

Default Cooper Zeon LTZ

I fitted a set of Cooper Zeon LTZ 285-50-R20 to my 2011 GC about 1,000 kms ago. Although a tight fit, they clear everything front and back. I have a 5.7L Limited with Quadralift, and the tyres clear at all the settings. Very impressed with the Coopers on the bitumen and gravel - yet to test them out in anything mildly extreme. But now I have the confidence that I can get out of trouble - althought I'm not really interested in looking for it.
