Quik dyno'd his truck on 35s and stockers and there was a 10 hp difference, basically nothing.
What about the torque difference having stock gears with 35s. The wheel and tire weigh over 100 pounds, stockers weigh 55-60. Surely both of those factors reduce performance.

Most trucks come with 20s which are in the range of 85 lbs.

Yes, there will be a degradation in performance, however, it might be 10 or 20 hp. It's not gonna be the difference of 400 to 500 hp.
