Hello guys I need some advice, I would like to know if 275 65r20 tires fits a 2008 Ram 1500 2wd with no modifications on stock 20" wheels? Thanks.

They should. You could order a truck with 275 60 r20s. Look around for pictures of 2wd trucks on the internet, I think you'll find them.

It's one step up in tire height, you'll be fine, just a taller sidewall. 02-03 the stock 20 was 275/55, then 2004 changed it to 275/60 well into the 4th gen run.

You might be pushing it at that height, the width is fine, if a bit bulgy on a factory 20x9 wheel. The 275/65 is only about an inch taller than the 275/60, but the 285/65 is a little over an inch and half taller than the 275/60. Assuming you have stock 20's with the stock size 275/60's on it, you need to turn it to full lock, add 3/4" past the tire and see if that's gonna hit anything.
