305/55/20 with no level/lift?

[Recontango]

I know there has been other threads with a similar question but I am hoping to get an updated answer/perspective...

Can I run 305/55/20 on my stock wheels with a 2013 4X4 without a lift or level and not need spacers? I am looking at the Nitto Dune Grapplers, just can't wait to get rid of these weak looking goodyears...

Thanks for any help or experience!

I have 305s on my 2012 4x4 with the dealer installed leveling kit (maybe 1" actual lift?) and it rubs slightly when I turn all the way to the left. No rub when I turn right. It has not been an issue for me but I bet it would be without raising front. I do not have spacers.

btw my tires are Cooper Zeon LTZ's. I dunno if they are similar in height and width of the grapplers u want

My zeons fit and my open country Mt's fit great

No lift or level?

Thanks guys for your input.

the height of those tires won't be an issue as that is roughly a 33" tire which is also the height of the tire that came on the truck. The issue would be in the width. I don't know if the front end changed for 2013's with the adjustable ride height, but on "most" 4th gen 4x4's a 1/4" wheel spacer is need to fit a 305/55/20 tire. I say most becuase some truck don't need them.

Kind of what I have been reading too. I am not a fan of spacers....

I will snap doe pictures under my front wheel well and see what you guys think.

What about 285/55/20? I know the would be a bit shorter, but the Den Grapplers come in that size, i really like the look of that tire. Otherwise I guess I will stick with stock size and get something more aggressive.

I appreciate all the help!

 

[quietpeen]

yes 285/55/20 will fit. unless you are looking for that wide tire look, getting an aggressive looking stock size still makes a big difference in looks.

 

[Recontango]

Look much different than without air suspension? Besides the air shock or course. I know it's hard to tell from the pic but there is about 3/4 in clearance between the UCA and the tire.

 

[Recontango]

Better angle.

 

[Recontango]

Decided to stay stock size for now, until someone figures out how to hack the air suspension .

Ordered some cooper zeons 275/60/20, will post some pics later when get them on.
