Question wheel/tire help

Hey Guys, looking for help determining what wheel /tire size i can go with, prefer 20's . Im wanting to go as fat as i can without cutting rear axle or tub. I plan to lower truck 2/4 or 3/4. Truck is 2016 2wd silverado WT

How much wider rear wheel/tire can i run if i did cut axles, no tub ? (details plz)
thanks in advance for your help

what diamater wheel are you trying to run? I Assume you want something in the 29" height range given the 4" drop in the back? You will have a hard time finding anything wider than 315 thats going to be a good size for the truck.
