I made it through 45 pages of this topic and gave up...Is anyone running 305-50-20 on stock AT rims? I would love to go with the 275-65-20 however I think clearance getting in and out of my garage will be an issue. So if I can't go higher...I might as well go wider, just not sure if the 50 profile height is going to look to small.

 

I am thinking about the Cooper Zeon's, decent price and decent look. Just need to see what this size actually looks like on a truck.

I had 295/50/20 on my Silverado at the stock height on Chevy Oem rims and had no issues at all. Going to a 305 would be pushing it. Even after putting the 2.5" leveling kit in the front and rear I only put a 295/55/20 on. The Chevy wheel wells are just to narrow. I'm sure you can fit a 305/55/20 with a leveling kit I just didn't wanna push it with the chance of rubbing or issues being to wide

Double check the clearance on your garage....I don't think the 275 will make you too tall. Your FM antenna may hit, but your OnStar antenna shouldn't in a standard garage...that's your tallest peak. You should still have 2" clearance with the 275s and level.

 

Guy at work is running 305/50/20 Nitto G2s (P, not LT tire) on +1 offset...your stock rim is +31, so he is sticking out 1.2" more. He is rubbing when reversing out of his drive...most likely the liner. IMO it's too much rim and not enough tire from the side view. It's also too wide and not tall enough. But he likes it and many people are running this same setup. Google Image search it rather than just reading this forum.

I have 275/65r20 and 2 inch level in the front. My garage door is 7ft high with no issues. remember the tire is 2 inches tall than stock but only raises the truck height 1 inch over the stockers.

My door is 75", for some odd reason. Right now the truck is 73" to the highest point. Theoretically 275/65's will work with only 1" of additional lift.

It sucks that there aren't more 285 options, or 33/ 12.50's.

hows the ride with the tires?

I have the same exact tires. They are very quiet, i think they are pretty smooth. Not much different than stock.

Can we get a couple of shots down the side from front and rear to see how far the tires stick out?

I will do that as soon as I get my truck back. Some jackass hit me the other day and then took off. It's getting repaired now.

Looks great!

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I agree, there is no one answer fits all as every rig is different, one may be pulling some little aluminum fishing boat while another is towing a monstrosity that weighs a lot and hopefully the owner if the rig has some prior experience to know what drive mode they should choose.    It also struck me and this is from watching a few of those boat ramp escapades videos in the past, Ford being one of the vehicles that has the auto front axle hubs and sure enough its found out that one hub has crapped out and won't engage and may not have manual hubs to even select on both sides so they are on the boat ramp stuck with no four wheel drive and spinning .... they flat out need a tow to get up the ramp and deal with the vehicles new found issues. That can happen to all brands of pickup, finding out either four wheel drive or 4 low isn't working right at the time its needed it to work as some electronic crap has failed.

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      Its possible you never had the joy of the crappy boat launches we tend to have around here or really some of them are just grades down to the river if its a river scenario and the conditions change all the time with the river levels and silt deposits. Some of the lakes we went to years ago, there was no such thing as a cement pad that went down into the water that the trailer stayed on, it was gravel maybe up to the water line and then duck crap much beyond that so sinking the boat tires into mud. Of course some of the more established lakes had a cement bar type boat ramp but sometimes it was covered in green slime closer and certainly within the water and a two wheel drive had all sorts of fun if one had to touch that slime with the rear tires.    A neighbor of mine had made a comment years back with his chev truck that was probably about the same year as yours but a half ton extended cab 4x4 and he a a fiberglass boat with an inboard so it wasn't a feather weight and he had gone out to one of the large popular lakes in the area and don't ask me how this happened but he was in two wheel drive as he figured he didn't require four wheel drive for that boat ramp and somehow upon pulling the boat out he twisted one of his drive axles. I suspect it must have spun and then grabbed on the cement ramp and shocked it to the degree of twisting it. He would have had the standard 8.5 or whatever it was axle housing as the 9.5 ring gear like my truck has also has larger drive axles as far as I know. Anyway he was feeling a vibration driving home and had it checked out and a shop found that the tire/hub was wobbling because of the axle had twisted so in went a new drive axle. After that bad experience he said he made sure to put it into four wheel drive to lower the stress on the rear axle. Of course that is where an HD truck can handle a lot more stress and no doubt these newer half tons with their larger ring gears probably have larger drive axles as well to match vs back in the day.

      Desirable - as in does someone WANT one, aspire to have one. Could reasonably buy any car they want and CHOOSE these instead.    I didn't watch the video, why did they win?

      The use of absolutes like "always" to describe gear selection, and giving free advice at a boat ramp sounds like a recipe for disaster. It's a boat ramp, not a farm, for starters.   IMO gear selection should depend on the obstacle. If low range is working and this is a slower speed, controlled ordeal, I'd keep using that.

      I had a boat for many years, never had a problem even with a 2 wheel drive 93 Silvy for 20 years. Good tires, proper use of the gas pedal worked.
