Will 305-55-20 stick out past the fenders on my stock wheels?

I've done some searching and cant really find a definitive answer. I have a 2018 Bighorn 4x4 with the stock 20" clad wheels. I just want to know if 305-55-20's will stick out past the fenders and if so by how much.

Nope. I have 305/55r20 Toyo rt’s on my stock black sport wheel and they don’t stick out and I don’t have any sort of fenders

I have 275/60R20 on mine and they stick out about an inch to inch and a quarter on the sides without fender flares. Although it isn’t super noticeable and when I had it inspected they didn’t say anything to me. Don’t know if that really helps you but I assume 305s would be a little wider then mine. I’ll put a picture so you can kinda see what I mean. 1774774d557e727fdb99c4aa822b6cc4.jpg

Uh...not the size he is asking for....and aftermarket wheels.....not helpful to the OP's question at all.


OP, the may just barely stick out, Make sure the 305-55 will work on your 20x8 wheels, they may be too narrow for that size.

Was a general comparison on how far mine stick out. My tires are just under 11” wide and they stick out about an inch. 305/55-20 are just above 12” so it was an example on how much mine stick out. So I’d say it could be a little helpful.

I have Toyo OpenCountry A/T 305/55/20 on oem clad wheels
You (at least me) need thin spacer disks to avoid that the rire rub on the upper control arm.
Still with a thin spacer disk the tire still rub a bit on the sway bar doing full turns while parking
Yes the tire stick a bit out of the fender

I think it depends on the truck and tire choice. I have 305/55/20 A/T tires on stock sport rims (20x9 i) and 0 rubbing issues. I also have 4 corner air (which shouldn't matter but maybe). I originally wanted a mud type tire but after doing some research it seems there is more rubbing issues with that type of tire/size on stock rims.

My tires stick out about .5" max.
