I think that one or two members my have 285/50-20's or 275/55-20's, but they are probably lowered or at stock height.

They make a 295 in the TG now. You could try that. or do a 305/50. What are the specs on your wheels. Im sure that would help the smart kids to steer you in the right direction.

A 285/55-20 is essentally a 33x11.50-20 tire. THat may be a good option. Also, the specs on the wheel will help a lot.

Yes, I think those wheels will push your tire out enough to sove your rubbing problems. I assume your tires are rubbing the control arms at full steering lock. Since you have the OEM 20's I'm sure the tire is extrememely close to the upper ball joint/control arm. THose wheels will stick out about 1.5 inches farthe than the OEM 20's.

Yes tire is extremely close to UCA.

It rubs on LCA, Sway bar and UCA full lock.

I am gonna get the wheels I guess I just hate to spend $800 and still have rubbing issues.
Will this affect rubbing on the bumpers orwheel wheels? I do not rub there now.

I doubt that wheel will cause rubbing there. If it does, it will be very, very minor and you could just trim a little plastic for clearance.

ya they look good, fixed the rubbing on control arms and sway bar, but now I rub on driver side front valence. I am going to get a self taping screw with a grommet, paint it Pueblo Gold and secure the valence to the truck. Then it wont rub anymore.
