Default will my tires clear?

i want to get a 3/5 drop on my truck but not sure of my tires are going to start rubbing or not.. i have a 02 ECSB silverado and the tire size is 285/50/20.

what is everyone else running for tire size on their 3/5 or 5/7 drops?

Yes they will rub, only a few can go 2/4 with that tire and there is still minimal rubbing.

With a 3/5 I would probably do a 275/45/20, 275/40/20, or a 255/40/20. For a 5/7, 245/40/20, or a 255/35/20. It all depends on the wheels you are running and what backspacing/offset they have though.
