Just finished my Bilstein install...now for tires.

Good choice on tires, but I’d stick with 295/60R20 ... With your amount of lift, the 65’s will look stuffed

Yeah, that may be true... Fortunately, I actually kind of like the stuffed look, and since, in this case, it's cheaper for me to get the 65s it's a win win!

Ok..i was not wrong Your post led me to believe you were comparing the price of stock size 275 60 20 to bigger tires. Doing that, the 275 60 20s at discount in the same tire are $261 per tire. Lol.

Oh yeah you weren't wrong. Most of the time it's definitely more money to get bigger tires. it just so happened in this case with the specific tires I'm looking at there's actually a cost savings for a bigger size.

Please post pics ... Will be curious to see ... Anything is better than stock ... Stock looks like a 2WD ... Lol

Looks good. Personally, I prefer the conservative lifts (mine recently got a 1.5/.75 lift) for daily driver. At 2.1/1.5 your's is sitting about 3/4" higher than mine, 34" tall tire is a no brainer, doubt you'd even tell the difference between 33" and 34" tire though. 35" tall, on stock wheels, I think you will be fine.

As you get some miles on them, please let us know how those 5100's are working on the rear. You're in Utah, I would think the road quality is comparable to what we deal with in Pennsylvania.

Thanks, yeah I like the smaller lifts with bigger tires too. And I'll keep you posted on how they perform long term. So far I've loved the upgrade. I've mostly noticed it in the handling in curves, there's noticably less body roll. Also, less nose dive on braking. My oem shocks had 93k miles on them so that might have something to do with it.

Yeah I'll definitely post pics when I get the new tires. May be a few weeks still but I'll for sure post pics on this thread.

Here's some Toyo Open Country ATII's LT275/65R20

We are apparently doing things in reverse order.

the 65's do fit in pretty nicely. It's not as snug as one might think. I think I've only rubbed one time?

You have roads in your part of PA!?!?

Got my tires put on. Toyo Open Country AT3's in 295/65/20. I love how it turned out!
No rubbing whatsoever so far. They're nice and quiet too. We'll see how they do during hunting season and the subsequent Utah winter!

Looks good!

I've had mine for about a month now and love mine too! Put a grin on my face everytime to walk out to the truck! 295/65/20s the way to go - the 60s wouldn't have looked right in my book too much well wouldve shown.

Looks awesome man I’ve been leaning towards a 4” lift but after seeing this this might be the direction I go I’m sure it cost a lot less as well

What lift/level do you have on your truck

 

[regal81455]

I've got 5100s at all four corners, eibach springs on the front @ the 3rd notch, 1.5" ProRyde coil spring spacer in rear and 1.5" zone body lift.
