what tire size are you running.

I had my 4/6 installed saturday, i got the 305/40R22 and it does rub a bit on the inner fender. Im actually debating on going back to 20's for weight reduction.
I picked 20" for that reason. Didn't want to kill all performance and MPG's but they are ALMOST too small.

Truck looks too!
No I did not install hubcentric rings on the centerlines. I was never told I had too so I didn't. You could give it a shot and see how it turns out or contact centerline. (good luck with that )

whats almost too small? the tire or the wheel?
and your truck being single cab, a 20" looks good.... not sure how my ext cab will look. Then again, id did come with 20" from the factory....

theres a guy locally selling a set of Boss 330's 20" with 275/45R20.... but im wondering if the tire is too short? Im not sure if I should go for it. Wants $700 with tire @ 80%

The wheel is almost too small. These GMT-900's have such huge fender wells that 20 wheels almost look too small.
I am running 275/45/20 on my wheels right now.

I'd look at what you want to use the truck for. Is it a DD? Do you have any performance mods planned?

Yeah, the only reason I went 20's is because I have performance in mind. I bet you would notice a bit better performance going with some light 20's.

wonder if the Boss 330's are that much lighter than my current 22's. They are heavy as hell man!
