Aggresive Tires on your 20's?
I am running a 275/65/R20 Dunlop M/T Maxx Traction on my truck I only have a 1000 or so on them and have loved them so far have seen a little mud have performed well. They are awesome in the rain I was hitting the biggest puddles i could find to test them out and they seemed like nothing. They also have the snowflake rating so are supposed to be good in snow. The noise really is not bad I can still have a conversation listen to my radio low and talk on the phone. Also they look real good after only 1000 miles on them I have nothing bad to say about them. They were 295 a tire + tax mounted and balanced and out the door at a local tire shop here in Fort Wayne.

I have the grapplers on my 20's i love them they cost me $1350 but then again that was with a discount. Although it sounds like a jet is over you once you hit about forty personally i think it sounds cool and they look way mean changed my truck a lot.. They're nice for digging also but very soft don't do burn outs with them or they will be gone.
Just picked up a 2007 Ram 1500 5.7 HEMI Quad Cab and was wondering if I could run 275 65 20 TOYO MT's on it without doing the 2.5 leveling kit on the front end! Stock 275 60 20 on it now but has the goodyear HP's and are in my opinion lousy in the snow and rain here in NJ! Any help would be great...thanks in advance!
You could use the search feature and find that tire fitment is discussed about on a daily basis. There is also a "fitment" area in the FAQ section.
But to answer your question, you are currently running a 33" x 10 3/4", the 33" is considered max for a stock truck. The tire you propose is just a smidge over 34" x 10 3/4", might rub a hair at full turn and would without a doubt impede full articulation, but I would imagine it could be stuffed in there...

Mine are the Yokohama Parada Spec-X 275/55/20 and I love them and will be getting them again in about a month (only a bit wider if I can, 285/50/20). The grip is outstanding on wet/dry asphalt.

I used to own a set of Nitto NT420's on my wife old 1995 Grand-Am. I didn't care for them as they sucked taking corners. In wet conditions....... let's just say @ the time, I wish I was that old lady taking the tire back to Discount Tire and wanted to throw it through their window (lol).
Now... those Parada's looks good and I did read some good reviews over @ the SS Trailblazer / Silverado forums.
