285 vs. 275 on 20's

[Sportmissle]

I'm looking to upgrade the stock tires on my '12 1500 Hemi. I had the BFG KO2's on my previous truck so I'm sold on them. I can't decide if it's worth dropping the money on the 285/65r20's vs. the 275/65r20's. Is the difference that noticeable? Also, I am putting a 2" level on so I definitely want some thing bigger than stock. I am keeping the stock wheels for now but plan on upgrading to Fuel 20x9's in the distant future. What are you guys running and what size do you recommend? How much did it effect your fuel mileage? Thanks guys!

285's fill up the wheel wells very nicely. Had I not planned for a 4" lift and stayed with the level, I would have probably went 275/65/20's. Little cheaper, little less weight and a lesser impact on performance and MPG's. But that's just me..........
