How would this look?

I got an offer for $1650 which included balancing, rotation, flat repair, etc...for the following:
Eagle Alloy Series 170 20x8.5
Pirelli Scorpion ATR 275/55/20

I was trying to get the Nitto in 305/55/20, but they're backordered. I don't know if the 275/55 will show too much wheel well. I want the tire to fill the wheel well and look like an A/T tire. What are your opinions on the look and the price? An pics would be great too!

I just checked ebay real quick for the wheels look like 1070 after shipping + about 550 - 600 for the tires, then mount + balance, and if you get free rotation and flat repair I would say it is a decent deal. Depends on the truck and what is done to it for the wheel gap though (4x4?, 4x2?, lift?, etc). Look for some pictures of the factory 20's on one of the trucks, that is most likely going to be how they will look (minus the wheels of course).

Well, I have a 4X2 Lariat...I found that Eagle has a 315 series which looks almost identical, but is a little more "deep" with the spokes (the look I want). I got the wheel/tires place to do everything for $1550. My girlfriend works for Ford and their parts department couldn't beat that even through their distributors! The tires are the same ones used on the OEM 20" wheels for the F150 so I think it will look good. Let me know what u think!?

Got my '06 FX4 in December. Came with Pirelli Scorpion ATR's(275/55/20). Does not fill up wheel well, but is a decent tire. I don't have pics on here yet. I am in Iraq until the summer. I believe I have some on my computer here. I will try to put them on here to let you see how they look. I know I am going bigger on the tires.
