People run the 305s with the 2.5. Can't say for certain on a 2 though. Maybe only carpet zip tie mod needed.

I already run 305. Your saying 305 55 20 right? Because that puts the tire at 33.21" vs my 305 50 20 which is a 32.01" tire

I honestly don't know. On a truck like mine they would rub. The 14 May be more forgiving.

Agree. Was just quick typing from the options given. People have had success with 305 55 20 and a 2.5 level. Can't say either way of a 2" will work as well as a 2.5"

With a 2" or 2.5" level, you may still see some rubbing. Pending on rim offfset. I have seen some people with rubbing and others haven't had any

I got tired on the truck spinning at every red light in the rain and getting stuck on flat grass in a 4x4 on the stock Goodyears. I am noow running 275/70r18 BFG KO's. I do not have a front level (my truck sits dead level stock anyway) and I have tried to make the tires rub at full lock by backing over speed bumps and even onto curbs and it will not rub. The truck looks 100% better to me than with the stock strret treads.

 

Got any pics? Thinking of doing something similar.

 

PS- How does yours sit level stock? Most have like a 3" difference, mine does anyway.

      MPG at 600 miles

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
