Can't decide on tires.. Input needed

rhino2020 · January 8, 2016

2014 Silverado with a 2.5" level with a 2" rear block, which added 1.25 lift in the back. I have wheels that are +18mm offset. I'm not wanting the tires to stick out to far but not look to sunk in if I ever added flares.

Been considering either 295/60/20 or 305/55/20 or 285/55/20 all terrains . I don't off road in this truck

Which would you go with?

Cant speak to the size options u mentioned, as i have 22"s with a +18 offset, but i can certainly say in a fan of nitto terra grappler g2s. Ive got a 2" level and am running a 33.3" tire setup. Had to ziptie my inner fender liners back, but Fits nicely now.

Btw, what wheels do u have? Your profile picture has the oem 20"s, and i can say that those shouldnt be -18 offset

KMC Wheels XD818 Heist Satin Black Wheel With Milled Spokes

They just came in today. There a +18 offset. That was a mistake in my op

U could always run a hubcentric wheel spacer...

If you don't go off-road, I'd assume it is all just solely for looks? If that's the case, go with whatever you like the looks of best. Are you wanting input for the sizes you listed, brand of tires, or both?

I like a little more sidewall over extra width myself. My vote from the sizes listed would be the 295's.

The only tire I will buy is BFG all terrain... Whatever size it comes in is what I'd buy.

Toyo Open Country AT II. I love them, aggressive look, minor roadnoise, seem to have good traction from my experience so far and good treadwear rating. I have had great luck with Toyo tires in the past.

I am running 305/50/20 on 20x9 +1 wheels. They stick out about a half inch. With your offset I think 305/55/20 would be a good choice, as long as you are OK with speed being off

Just had the Toyo ATII's installed today in a 295/60/20 on my truck and they fit with just a 2" level kit. Stock all terrain wheels though which are 27mm offset.

TD21 I bet you ride looks awesome with that size tire. I had 5100 Bilsteins on my old 14 AT with 295/55/20 AT2 Toyo and they fit just fine. Please advise if you get any rubbing as I would like to run this size tire in the future.

Only minor rubbing on the fender liner carpet at full lock. Clears sway bar fine.

I went with the 295/60/20 on +18s and they work fine with a little rub on sway bar at full lock but no issues under normal driving but OMG did I take a hit to fuel mileage along with some road noise. Its something to consider. I had the OEM 22s on prior to putting these on.

My vote would be for the 295/60/20's. It's just personal preference, but to me, they have the best visual proportions. I think the 305's just look too wide for their height, where the 295/60's are a bit taller, but not as wide. It's the same reason I think 295/70/18's look really good. With your lift, the 285/55/20's would just look too small, IMO.
