Yeah, doesn't look bad with stock 20's. But my preference is a tire to fill the gap up. Thanks for the tip

265 is the widest I think you should go by every thing I have read also, unless your going with that nice short sidewall height like Eric is doing, but you should be able to go all the way to a over all tire diameter of 31.65 on your tire rim combo with out rubbing.. Q-tip is running this only with a smaller wheel and larger tire with a stock wheel with a +25 offset.. As your offset changes on your wheel you have to watch rubbing issues, Now crash another member here has a overall tire diameter of 275/65/18 with a stock wheel offset of +38 which puts him at 32.07 and he had major rubbing issues and had to do trimming to get them to run so I figure if you can stay under 32 you may be fine..
Do not forget that both of the trucks I listed above have had 2" leveling kit on the front and 2" blocks on the back.. I am going to go with a wheel with "0" offset with a over all tire diameter of 31.61 which hopefully with that off set will make it with out rubbing issues I hope.. I am not going to get them till spring since I don't want to run them in the snow with all this salt, good luck.. Cya Slick

I was looking at getting a leveling kit. I just researched to see if I could find the overall height of that tire (285/50r20) overall height is 31.2" So If you saying as long as I am under 32 I should be good then...right

Nice set-up dude. I had the idea of putting a 3 inch lift on my truck a while back with some 33" A/T and a set of 20" Rockstars, but **** always comes up, ya know what i'm saying. I think 20's and an all terrian and a leveling kit will do me fine. My truck is about to be 5 years old, and I only got 43,000 miles. Thats my baby haha
