i currently have 275/45/20 tires on my dropped truck. and i need wider tires to put more rubber on the ground so they dont spin as easy. but i dont want the tires any smaller at all, and not much bigger. any help?

 

don't know about the size but you could switch to a tire with a stickier compound might help more than a wider tire.

 

^^^yup. a 2" wide tire, a 10" wide tire and a 20" wide tire made of the same compound will yield the SAME amount of traction. It's the compound in the rubber and tread design that will yield better traction not the amount of contact to the ground.
Common misconction that wider = more traction.

 

well do you have any "stickier" suggestions?

 

You need to look in the High performance category of tires. They will cost you more, but so does anything that is better. Stay away from Sumitomo's. Those things are cheap and get zero traction and wear crazy fast.
