Well, tommorow I'm biting the bullet and purchasing some 20" rims, I just need the Bling! Now on to tires. What are the 20" tires you guys use, and what are the measurements? Vinnie, if you read this, I specifically wanna know what your using cause I have the same drop, and I think the tires look perfect! Any input would be great. Thanks!

 

I am using Dunlop sp9000 295/40/20s.

Hope this helps and Congrats on the Bling.

How's the ride, tread life and stick?

 

The dunlops are good, but I'm switching to Kuhmo's next! same size as the dunlops, but there a better tire. I have the same dunlops and I hate them. there overpriced and I don't think they are that great. My buddy has the kuhmo's now on and there nice. I like them better then mine and they feel smoother and they hook better. and there allot cheaper too

go to www.tirerack.com and punch in 295/40/20 look up that size and you'll see them.

 

295/40/20 Goodyear Eagle HP's ... Really cheap at www.tirerack.com ...

One tire I've yet to hear anyone mention...(but I know folks on the board here have them) are the Pirelli Scorpion Zero's. The people at tirerack seem to like them. Any thoughts? I agree with the Kumho's though RT, seem like a nice tire.

 

anyone had trouble with rub on the bumper? I'm getting 22's (well, I have them all but that dirty UPS man dropped and bent a rim) but my wheel shop said the 22's will rub kind of alot.

Yeah, and they are Nitto 404's uh..... 305/45/22 or something pretty close to that.

Also, they're bigger than stock, they lifted my truck up atleast an inch, I think more

 

Pirelli Scorpion Zeros!!

305/45/20 with a tread wear of 300. Love these so far and grip really well. Had the Toyo proxies but they started to spin easily after awhile.
-------------------------------------

 

not a very good tire though, there is a reason why those are so cheap.

and i've heard good and bad things about the Toyo's... so for price and effienctcy i would go w/ the kumho's i run those too.

 

I have a set of goodyears on mine right now and they are a lot larger than the stock size wheel, it raised the speedo about 6 mph. The rims themselves are size 20x8.5 what size tires do you guys think would work with my truck and get it back close to the stock height tires? I looked at the kumho and have found a few good deals on them, so what size should I get. I think I am running 285/50/20 right now, thanks.

can anyone help me out?

the best way is to get a chip.

 

what are you talking about?

Possible anyone could find the Kumho's Ecsta's for anything lower than $211 a tire? Just asking, because tirerack doesn't have them in a warehouse near me, so shipping might be a bit expensive. Any input would help. Thanks

 

I bought BFG Comp T/A SSSs in 295/40-20.

Pluses: They are runflats, which means that you can leave the spare and jack behind. They will run for up to 200 miles at 50 MPH! Nice grip for a 20 (180 treadwear index). Nice looking tire. Crisp handling.

Cons: Expensive. Stiff sidewall=rougher ride. Requires some sort of wireless pressure monitoring system ($200 at the Tire Rack).
