Factory Wheels with Aftermarket Tire Thread

[cowboytk]

They will likely rub. Folks with a 2 inch lift are even saying that some rubbing is noticed. I have not seen anyone fit 295/65/20 without a lift. You might be the first to confirm this.

this is what is frustrating, i have read the p/b sits lower and i think those are the people who have had rubbing with certain sizes, but others are having no trouble with 285/65r20. The American Trucks video fits a 315/70r17 on without any rubbing and I believe a large port of the rubbing issue stems from width on many tires. Since these are marginally taller than the 315's but are an inch narrower the clearances should work, in theory. But....i dont know if i want to be a guinea pig

*****URGENT!!!!

I apologize, I misread the tire size....295/65/20 will indeed NOT fit on stock ride height....sorry for the confusion

Thank you for the clarification, I know the 295/60 will fit. I guess i need to look at all my available options.

More pics of blacked out stock 18inch sport wheels with 295/70/18 nitto ridge grapplers.

I thought those were Tremor wheels at a very quick glance. Looks amazing! Extra glad I went with the 18"s if I want to go this route in the future ?

Thank you! I love the tremor/raptor style wheels and these look very similar in design. Black them out with $30 worth of plasti dip and you have a very similar look at almost no extra cost since these wheels come with the truck. I love the end result!

Finalizing my order and going with the sport 18’s, no level and pretty much set on Tremor size tires…275/70/18. I’d like to see some more photos with this size preferably not leveled. 285/70/18 would be ideal but they’re much higher in cost and only 2 tires to choose from. I think 295/70/18 might rub stock and I’d like to see a picture of the “poke”.

I ended up buying 295/60r20. Hope the fit without issues. God willing wal mart doesn’t screw up delivery. They had them dirt cheap so I couldn’t say no. 192 a tire. Side note any experience with atturo trail blade xt. All the reviews I read were good minus those who tried to put a 11.5 on a 12 inch wide wheel.

At discount tire, changed my mind to Ridge Grappler 295/70/18… taking bets to see if it fits at this time..

I'll take the "they'll fit" end of the bet! (Purely because that's the size I want to run lol)

One tire on. No rubbing at all. Lots of clearance. He said I’ll know if it will rub when I back out when the suspension flexes. Looks like the place that would rub is those little plastic things whatever they do.

Tires were 350.00 each, price matched to 330.00 and then 10% military. Out the door for 1400.00. Hoping to sell stock takeoffs for 350-400 to eat the cost.

Also keep in mind I have the 2.7, not sure how much difference in height between heavier engines but something to note.

This is good news. The 275/70/18 looks too small and the 285/70/18 only has 2 tire options in the Ridge Grappler and Exo Grappeler. Curios to see pictures as I’m not fond of too wide of a setup….

I’ll make sure to get a bunch. I’m not patient so I went for this size. It’s all they had in stock other than the Falkens I ordered. The Falkens are nice but I feel I was chasing a deal as they are way cheaper.

Then I was set on grapplers in 285/70 which would be 60lb a tire and roughly 34 inches tall. 295/70 is 70lb a tire and I believe 34.2 high and a touch wider. Kind of splitting hairs but I’m more worried about the extra weight all in.

The 295 has a few options for tires under 60 lbs. I have a feeling I won’t like the width especially in SD winters.

Do you think a taller, but narrower 285/75/18 would fit after seeing how the 295/70/18 tire fits?
