Tires for 2020 Silverado with 22" Wheels

[Adam AC Woodworking]

I just bought a 2020 Silverado RST with 22" wheels. At first I was excited but now I'm realizing that you can't find an AT tire in the recommended tire size. 

 

Does anyone know alternate tire sizes that will fit without rubbing? I'm not really looking to add a lift or leveling kit as I like the height/stance of the truck. 

 

Spare me the "22's are made for cruzing pavement, not off roading" comments. I'm not going hardcore off roading but would like my truck to look like a truck and handle a dirt road or curb every once and a while when needed. If you have any pics of your ride with 22's that would be appreciated!

Its a slightly taller tire but nitto makes 285/50/22 in both their terra and ridge grappler and people have run those with no lift or level

Thanks!

Unfortunately the only downfall is that size tire comes in an E load so its a heavier tire

What's the downfall of a heavier tire? I'm ok with the taller tire. I'd like to add as much height to the tire as I can without a rub.

Its going to ride more stiff like an actual truck. Its not a huge difference from the stock tire. Anything honestly is better than the alenzas that come in these trucks

Yes I too have been researching this. I also have a RST with 22`s and been looking at the 285/50/22 Ridge Grappler its a little over a half inch taller 

and looks like about a half inch wider, but they are expensive around $1900.00 with everything so if you can get a test fit up before purchase  that would be the best.

I'm ok with it riding a little tougher. Like you said it's a truck! I want it to look like a truck!

You should go buy them, put them on and then tell me how they fit for my test up!

The ALENZA A/S 02 - SIZE: 275/50R22  are 41 pounds to the Ridge Grapplers are 62 pounds

Discount Tire will test fit for you and actually I had a appointment to do so until this Covid -19 crap hit   lol lol lol

I’ve read that the 305/45/22 size fits also. That size is the same diameter as stock so no speedo/odometer issues, 1” wider, xl 4 ply and they weigh 47lbs. AT tire without the stiffness and MPG loss that the e-rated tires will give you.

I got the Terra Grapplers in 285/50/22 and have been happy so far, no rubbing. They are great in snow and ice, haven't used in mud yet. I do hear tire whine on the highway with the window down but doesn't really bother me.

I have the Ridge grappler 305/45's on mine.  No issues and the ride is very good.

Heavier tires (more unsprung weight) in addition to a more aggressive tread pattern will decrease your fuel economy in case that matters to you.  You also might notice a slight decrease in power.
