Tire Feedback Needed!
Good Afternoon fellas,
I have been doing quite a bit of research lately on fitting my truck up with some new tires. I’m looking for something to help fill out the truck without completely killing my performance and mileage. I put roughly 8-10k miles a year with mostly city driving. Below is what I am considering. Anyone have any feedback on mileage drop, ride quality, performance drop, or opinions? I am willing to sacrifice some in these areas, but trying to avoid anything drastic. I have not really seen much first hand to get a good idea so feel free to post up any pictures.
BFG A/T - 275/65R20
BFG A/T – 285/65R20
DuraTrac – 285/60R20
I would like to stay away from a 305/55R20.
Below is a picture of my truck for reference. I have a 1.5” AS level up front already installed. 3.55 gears, 5.4 Any advice would be appreciated.

not sure how big you can go with just a 1.5" level, but i dont know much about the new trucks. ive got a 2.5" on my 07 with 285/65/20 bfgs. i love them! the ride is great, and i honestly didnt notice too much of a drop in mpg. i think you could safely run the 275s, and i have heard great things about the duratracs...plus they look sweet!
