What’s the max load of those tires? My g2’s 295/40/20 are 2337 lbs. I’m kinda questioning the load on the fronts and pushing it in the corners. The side wall is definitely a little soft for the weight of the front of the truck.

2094lbs according to Nitto
Nitto doesn't make a 275/45/20 nt555, but here are some other specs:
Nitto 421Q - 275/45/20 - 2337lbs
Nitto 421Q - 275/40/20 - 2094lbs
based on that, you can assume that basically they were telling me you can't run 275/40/20 on a RCSB, which we all know is bullshit

A friend of mine has a 03 1500hd lowered on 22” billet specialist running 305/40/22 since 2005 and its supercharged 6.0 drives the hell out of it with no problems he also works at Michelin and says that the tire ratings are underrated for this reason I also had 305/40/22 put on the wife’s heavy Escalade so it’s like a milk date just for reference

Discount gave me the exact same issues when I went to get my tires mounted on my CCWs, I even told them they were goin on RCSB (drove up there in my Avalanche) and they wouldn’t even mount them on the rims....had to go to a mom and pop tire shop to get them mounted

I run 275/40/20 on my ext cab and discount mounts my tires no problem. What's the load rating on them 106?
Go in there and tell them 03 ext cab with the 235/75/16 option that was a factory load rating of 106. There system doesn't allow them to go below the factory load rating.

It's a 106xl. There reason I say that specific one is same thing happened to me at discount, 03 had two option as far as tire either a 235/75/16 or a 255/70/16. The main difference the load rating the 255 has a 110 load rating same as a 245/70/17. That's why they wont do it. Just try another one saying it's a 03 or 04 shouldn't be an issue.
