Default Anyone running 295/45/20?

I would like to run this at all 4 corners on a 05 2wd rcsb stock ride height.

If anyone has pictures I would highly appreciate seeing them. And any help on what size whells with waht backspacing would be a tremendous help also.

Thanks Kyle

No one is running this size?

Moregrip's pics got me to thinking I would like to fill up my fenders a little and run the widest tires I can all around with no rubbing.

Any one has any ideas for wheels and tires for around $2000-$2200 I would much appreciate any input.

Thanks Kyle

I'm running 285/50 20 which is a little taller and narrower than the 295/45. I know you can run a 285/50 with a 2/4 drop so there won't be any problems with a 295/45. How wide you can go really depends on your rim width and 10 in. would probably be your max rim width.

If I can fit 10" all around that would be perfect. What BS do I need to be able to rotate my tires, if possible.

Thanks Kyle

Too early in the morning, after reading that it did not come out the right way.

What I meant is can I run the same BS front and rear with no problems?

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks Kyle

I am runnin 20x9 with 5'' bs with 285/50s all the way around no drop though. Personally I wouldnt go more then 20x9 in my opinion 10s will stick out to far just my opinion.

The Breeze, any pics. Strokers looks great but I would like to see it without a drop.

Thanks Kyle

The rear needs a 2'' if not a 3'' drop its a 3 1/4'' difference from the center of the front wheel opening to the center of the rear wheel opening. The Caltracs seemed to raise the rear a lil.

I probably should've added that mine is only dropped 2.5" in the rear. I know I've seen a truck with 295/45's on it but I can't remember where. The Joe Gibbs trucks have a 1/3 drop with 275/55's. Seems that there are pics everywhere of trucks with all but the 295/45. I guess because it is so wide.

Excellent pics guys.

I think that looks like something I could handle.

Any idea if the hotchkis rear sway bar would work with a 2" shackle and caltracs?

Oh and by the way how much do the eagles weigh and where is a good place to buy from?

Thanks for all the help.
