What size tire can I fit on the 20 inch rims?

spotdog14 · Feb 5, 2013

I'm looking at my options for replacement tires on my 2008 Limited with the 20 inch rims.

I am wondering if a LT275/65R20 will fit. The stock tire size is 275/55-20. Also has any one run this size, and does it rub?

I'm looking at a pair of BFG AT's.

Thank you!

While I can't say for sure, you are going from a 32" tire to a 34"+ tire (increase of about 2.25"). You are not increasing width of the tire. My guess is that you will not see any rubbing on the tires.

The bigger issue will be the 6% change in tire revolutions per mile. This will be noticeable on the speedo, and it most likely will reduce fuel economy.

That said, it really isn't that dramatic a change, and I would think that you would be fine.

You cannot go bigger then a 33" tire with a front lift/leveling kit

Check out my specs, these fit on factory, I added the lift after for a little extra clearance. I think they look awesome, super expensive though.

Do you by chance have any larger pictures of your vehicle that I can see what the tires look like?

Those are exactly the tires I am thinking about getting... well one side larger.

I'll put some more pics up, I just know these fit without the lift.

Hi, Wondering if a 2 inch front leveling kit will allow 285 55r20 on stock rims without any rubbing or modifications. Thanks.
