I run 275/45/20s on my 2/4 with no problems, not positive about the 3/5 but looking at my truck looks like they will still work fine.

You'll be fine with that tire size on a 2/4 or a 3/5. I was looking at a 3/6 with that size at one time. A 275/45 is roughly 29.6" tall and would look great with a 3/5. Go for it.

thanks guys, all the info yall give me is helpful keep it up!!! I really like the look of a 2/4 but i think a 3/5 would look better with a still kinda thick tire like the 275/45
