Trying to figure out what Im going to do for wheels and tires on my project. It will most likely never see a strip but get driven quite a bit, few races here and there. Only driven in the summer.

Going with 20s or 22s, not sure yet. I think 20s would be better performance minded (obviously smaller and lighter are better) but I cant find much that I like. Ive been thinking TBSS wheels in 22 since you cant get them in 20 for a fullsize.

What brand and type of tires are you running? Im 4x4 so traction shouldn't be a huge issue, but I would still like something on the performance side of things. I love the Nitto 420s on my Tahoe, but i don't know if those are what I would want? Any other opinions out there? I want something that is going to wear decent but still have some grip when I need it. I feel like the Nitto NT05 is a bit more agressive than I would need. Maybe the NT555?

Also, what tire size are you running on your 4/6 with a NBS. I know the newer trucks can take a bigger tire. Id like to stay around a 29.5" tire height I think.

285/40/20 is 29" would they rub being 285?
265/35/22 is 29.3

If you want to stay near 30" maybe look into a 265/50-20. That's what im going to next if I don't sell my centerlines.

Same here, been on the truck almost a year and they are just now showing any wear at all. If these keep lasting like this, they'll be getting replaced with the same thing Stock 275/55-20's for me.

Those look like decent tires. Affordable as well.

Im thinking 29-29.5 is where ill want to be. I can currently fit a 265/75/16 on there. Thats 31" and 10.5 wide. I think i can fit a 285. The roads are terrible around here, especially after this winter. I wouldnt mind having that extra sidewall.

285/40/20 is about 29" and 11.22 wide
265/35/22 is 29.3 and 10.67 wide
285/35/22 is 29.3 and 11.22 wide

I actually went with smaller tires after I dropped the truck. It looks unusual but hauls *** and handles very well due to being so close to the ground. I am running 235/60 R16 Sumitomo Tour LS 149mph tires:

Another option at 29" is a 255/45r20 if you don't mind loosing a little bit of contact patch(still at ~10.08 in) but with slightly better sidewall.

I think I'm going to run these in a NT05

I do like that size. I dont think the loss of an inch of width would be a huge thing since i have 4x4 for traction. I guess it will depend on the wheels I find.

Ive been looking at the Euromax 515 wheels in a 20. They are pretty light and they are cheap. A vendor on another site has them forsale and has been pushing them. Not my favorite design, but for the price and weight savings over a tbss 22. Idk if i can convince myself though as i really like the TBSS
