Default KMC/toyo tires

Ok I have an 04 1500 2wd and would like these: http://www.westkycustoms.com/product...x20_Tires.html will they rub a little or a lot? I plan on getting a 2" rough country leveling kit. If those won't work I know for sure the 18's will but i'd rather get the 20's and do a little trimming but if I can't I won't. I'm trying to fill the wheel well up as much as possible so what do I need to do? help a newb.

those are the same overall size as mine, although i have the 18" wheels. wheel size doesnt matter, its the height and width of the tire and the width, backspacing, and offset of the wheels that matter...
those will fit with a level. mine rubbed a little on the factory mud flaps but it was minor. in the wheel specs it said they were 8 bolt... make sure you get 5 bolt... bolt pattern is 5x5.5 for our trucks
the specs also said -24mm offset so theyre gunna stick out quite a bit

On a 2wd with only the 2" level it's gonna be tight. You may have a little more rubbing than someone with a level and 4wd. It's a really nice package setup, but IMO and I don't want to start any crap with anyone, so again IN MY OPINION the whole Rockstar thing is a little overplayed. They are a nice rim but everytime I turn around there's another Dodge with Rockstars near me.

Tell me about it. I see at least 6 different vehicles driving around with those a day.

oh yeah, i forgot its a 2wd.. might be a little tighter then...

and to the two bastards rippin on the rockstars... i think white 2wd lifted trucks are a little overplayed... how bout i ram my hemi sized boot up your as$?

LOL. Just playin guys. I actually agree... i bought the rockstars because i got a good deal.. now i love them! i wish people would stop buying them because everytime i see a truck with them it makes mine that much less unique... i wish they would just discontinue the dam things.. lol.

Will 305/55/20 on a 20X10 rim look decent and be ok for everyday driving?
