Just thinking out loud about my next set of tires. I'm running the 1500 Express Black Truck edition. It has 20x8 alloys with 5.2" backspacing. No spacers right now and I run 295/60 Nitto Terra Grapplers. I like the tires, so I'll probably be sticking with them or the Toyo AT2s.
My dilemma is tire size. I'll be installing a 4" Superlift with bilsteins at .7" or 1.4". So I'll have plenty of clearance. I'm thinking a 290/65r20 will fill it out better than a 35x12.50 and less chance of rubbing on a control arm or sway bar (right now I rub on the sway bar a little at full lock turned driver. Zero rub turned passengers).
What say the masses? I know the difference is minimal, but it's about 3/4" difference. Silly "dilemma" but not a bad one to have
