Default 1500hd on newer GM 20s

So i`ve been looking around for new wheels for my 1500hd since my factory wheels were horribly pitted and just darkened from years of brake dust. So got a great deal on a set of 2011+ 2500hd wheels. Now with the lug pattern change i knew i needed adapters plus the wider the adapters the better the wheels would fit being such high offsets. So i picked up a set of 275/60s for the tires and a set of 2in 8 lug adapters. The truck is all factory parts with the torsion bars turned alittle. Im really happy with the outcome looks like a whole different vehicle from before.

It's still beyond me why they never offered a 20" wheel option of those trucks. It just looks "right" on there.

Great looking truck. I thought it would look a little goofy with the wheel spacers but damn..the combo of 275/60's , 2" spacers, and 4wd flares look killer! Well done.

Do you have a side shot of the truck to see how far the wheels stick out of the fender wells?

Also, do you get any rubbing when steering lock to lock? Im running 285/75 on the stockers and get slight rubbing on the sway bar.
