275/60/20

I am currently running 305/55/20 Nitto TGs on American Racing Mottos 20x8.5s. The tires have been great (about 45k miles on them now), but I am considering going to 275/60/20s. The Nittos are really more aggressive than I need anymore, and I'd like to get a little better ride quality.

Couple things...

It seems to me like the narrower (much lighter) tires would tow better and brake better...any comments?

Do I still need my 2" AS leveling kit to make these tires fit? (Not sure if I want to take it off anyway.)

Any tire suggestions? I'm leaning towards the Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revos. I really want a good A/T tire. Snow traction is the most important (but I don't want dedicated snow tires).

Thanks in advance.

I think your current setup will look much better.

Since the 275s are only a little over an inch narrower than the 305s, and they are basically the same diameter (33s), I really didn't expect there to be much of a difference in the look. However, the look of the truck/tires is not as high of a priority as towing ability, snow traction, ride comfort, braking ability, etc.

Any other comments regarding my questions above?

Any pics of the 275/60/20s (especially on non-stock rims)?
