I had 305/60/R20 Goodyear SRA's on my truck befoer I lifted it,with no rubbing.Although the inner sidewall of the tire was very close to the spindle,about a 1/4" of space......That is the biggest tire I had on my factory rims...

im planning to get some new rubber before the snow starts falling.
probably BFG All-Ts. they have always worked well for me.

stock is 275/60/20, so...
305/50/20= 1" shorter
305/55/20= .2" taller
295/60/20= .9" taller
285/55/20= .7" shorter
285/65/20= 1.6" taller

i dont want to go shorter, and i think id prefer extra height over more width.
so im thinking the 285/65 may be my favorite of these.
can anyone confirm fitment? anyone have this size installed? pics?

This is a great site for AT/MT tire reviews. On most of the tire links they will give you the exact dimensions on the tire. Some tires do not measure the same as the dimensions they are sold as.

Your in the 2009+ section, although they should be very similar I do know 09+ has slightly less backspacing.

Check out This Sticky I made a while back in the 3rd gen section. It should help!

Note that all the dimensions posted above are theoretical. You might be amazed at the different actual sizes if you look at the spec sheets.

BTW, I resurrected this thread because I had the same question. I'm leaning towards 305/55/20 on my stock 9" wheels, but I'm going to look at the inside clearance first.
