Great pictures guys, thanks a ton!!

Mine is a 2WD Crew.

I just don't want the massive 7" sidewall tractor trailer tire like I have now (265/70/17). Either tire, 275/45/20 or 275/55/20, will have a shorter sidewall, and the 275/55 will be closer in height to what I have now. Current wheel gap is acceptable until I decide to go lower. I think with all the pics provided, I'm leaning more towards a 55 now just to fill gap better vs. the 45 while I'm on "stock" height, or even if I do the 2/4.

ahhhh decisions, decisions...

I don't have any pics that would help you then, but I'd say with that drop on a 2WD, the 275/45R20 would look great and fit well.

Here's my 4x4(lowered) with 275/45R20 on.


Same truck, same suspension & ride height, with 275/55R20 on. These BARELY clear, any lower at all, and the fronts will rub(on turns).

So, long story short...

275/45 if lowered
275/55 stock height (at least on the front)

im gonna have to say again, check out the 285/50-20s available. they are between the two you are looking at now in overall height. Plus they are just a little wider

Here are a few pictures of my 285/50ZR20 Continental UHP Contact

Haven't really thought about them...I'll look into them tho! Thanks!!

Look Good!!! Thanks man.

Like Pontiac used to say....WIDER IS BETTER


While Showcasing my MS Paint skills...

The 285/50 really fits everything I want. Shorter overall, less sidewall, and wider....think I just got sold on the 285/50s

NOW! Will the fronts rub at stock height? What about a 2/4 drop?

What tires are popular? I like the Kumho Ecsta STX, Falken Ziex S/TZ-04, Nitto NT 420S, & General Grabber UHP.

I ran the 285/50R20's on my truck as well. I had a little rub when turning, just before full lock. Sorry, no pics of them.

at what ride height?

Same as in the pics.

Truck is a 4x4. Front is lowered with torsion keys, they are cranked up as high as they will go. Rear has the block removed, rear shackle, and overload leaf removed.

This is what it looks like with 275/70R16's on.



The 285/50R20's will not rub on your truck at stock height. They will rub when lowered.
