Default 275/45/20s or 285/50/20s

On an 03 GMC Sierra. Its on a 2wd with a 2 inch shackle drop. Have the 285/50/20s now and they seem to be slowing me down. Just dont want to get the 275/45s and not like the way they look.

Go with the 275/45/20. Look up my pic on show and shine and that is the size I have on the truck.

I have the Hankook Ventus ST Rh06 274/45/20's... love it. We bought weels and tires, nitrogen filled from www.performancetiresplus.com, under $1400 balanced and delivered to the house, from Long Beach Calif to Alvin Texas.

275s look too skinny in my opinion... I say go for the 285s. I'm trying to figure out if I can squeeze 295/45/20s on my factory wheels, cause the stock 275/55s look gay.......

I have 285s on my truck with a 2'' rear drop and I think they look perfect just my opinion.
