Check this thread, Allgonoshow has that tire size on his truck:

Fits the fender pretty well IMO.

He's at 2/2 IIRC, best us 4x4s can do unfortunately. I think most who go 4/6 want the rubber band look, probably cause they don't have to deal with shitty roads and endless winters lol.

well, i just dont want the tire to look too skiny. I want a good tire/wheel ratio. Im just not sure how the 275/45R20 will look on mine. (being a larger ext cab)

I think you'd need at least a 4" drop in front to pull off a 275/45. Mine's dropped 2" and the stock 275/55 looks just about right, so any less tire and you'll need some serious droppage (There's almost a 2" difference in sidewall between the 275/45 and 275/55).

yeah, i have a 4/6 DJM that was just installed saturday. I needed new tires for my 22's already. They are 305/40's right now and do slightly rub when I turn, but I imagine that new 305/40's will have extra meat on them and will rub more.

So ive been debating on going back to 20's when i came across these boss 330 20" wheels with 275/45R20 .... So im just trying to look at this thread owners truck who seems to have the same tire/wheel combo. (and i just thread hijacked him) sorry bro

any side profile shot of the front wheel with that 275/45 to see what the gaps look like to the fender??
