Whats up guys. 2017 sport, leveld 2.8” in the front with Bilstein 6112’s and 5100’s in rhe rear with 1” Daystar spacer. Stock 275/60/20’s currently. Need to fill this gap, and will be keeping the 20x9’s on there for now. Im looking at either 275/65/20, 285/65/20 or 35x11.5x20. I know 295/65/20 is about a hair over, maybe like 35.1 and 11.6 wide. Rather not have to do spacers but will if necessary. And 3.21 gears. Doing ATs or Hybrids. Any opinions on size?

You have a lot more variety in 275/65/20 not counting the insane price difference in this size compared to 285/65/20 or 35x11.5/20 for just 0.5" more in height. 275/65/20 hands down. Have no idea how you guys with 20's can stomach the prices on those 285 or 295 tires :)

Are you wanting to looked stuffed, are you just looking for a better priced tire? It may be more beneficial to find another truck you like the look of and post a picture of the look you’re going for. Then we could assist better

no Not another truck that is my truck. Just trying to pick the best size AT tires to put on. I want the wheel well more full, but not super stuffed looking.

If staying at current height, I’d go 275/65/20. I’ve run 285’s and now 35’s but I have a 4” lift.........save yourself some $$$ and performance and look at 275’s. As stated above, WAY more options and simply changing to a more aggressive tire make the tire look beefier.
