bigger tires

[85wrangler]

Does anyone have a pic of a stock 265/70/17 and a stock 275/55/20 with no mods or leveling. I'd like to see the difference. According to the charts the two setups will give me almost the same wheel size.

I can show you a 275/55R20 with a level and a 265/75R16 which is the same size as a 265/70R17

In your honest opinion, do you think what I'm going to do will make a big difference in the look of my truck or should I just put bigger tires on my 17' rims? I've been looking at this on ebay, if I decide to go to 20`s http://www.ebay.com/...f08d938&vxp=mtr, what do you think. Mine is a 2012, but your truck looks awesome from the way the wheel wells a filled up.

What you will notice most about the 20's is the width. They're only 10 mm wider but look like more. It makes a huge difference.

I went with a brand name level. I don't know anything about the off brand ones. Most people on here use the rough country kit. I have a level and stock size 20's.

Ok, here it is. I'm going to buy a set of 20" rims and thinking about this kit, http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-5-FRONT-STRUT-3-REAR-BLOCK-U-BOLT-LIFT-KIT-4X4-4WD-4X2-2WD-2-2-25-INCH-Z71-/181062574803?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Year%3A2012|Make%3AGMC|Model%3ASierra+1500&hash=item2a282ba2d3&vxp=mtr what size tire would I be safe to buy, with no chance of rubbing. Appreciate the input, thanks

[Chris]

I think you will be good with a 275/60 or a 285/55

$260 for that??? You can get a TGC 2.5" level and Zone blocks/ubolts for less.

 

IMO I'd run the 2.5" level and keep the stock block

[85wrangler]

would I be able to run 275/60/ 20's with just the level? The tire calculator shows 33" high.

[Chris]

Yes

[85wrangler]

So what would be an equivalent 17" tire size, I've got 17's now that I'm using for winter and I'd like to keep the same look.

^^^ yup

Here is the 20" rims I'm looking at. Trying to decide which one to go with. Just wondering what you guys think. They are from UsaRim, and they are going on a set of 275/60/20 Goodyears. Thanks again for the info.

[Chris]

The latter looks like the ck375 22"
