Anyone running 20 with a good A/T or even a mudder? I have run 20's with goodyear eagle GTII's and they were too street, and also didnt fill the gap very well, anyway would love to see pictures and see what tire size you are running.

I would think a 33/12.5/20 wouldn't take much.. the factory 17" was dang near that big.

Scott, not sure of the exact sizes, but the biggest you can go on a rim like that is 33x11.5. So, do some looking around and see what you can find. It will be something in the neighborhood of say a 285/55R20 or a 285/60R20. Not many choices, but that is what you are looking at. Personally, my rule of thumb is the rim size is half the diameter of the tire. So, for the 20" rims, you should be running a 40" tire. But, to each their own and what makes you happy is what works.

^ hopefully you didn't mean they don't make a 33/12.5/20. Most popular size around here.

Saw a damned Durango with that size in a Nitto MudGrappler. Ree-donk-ulous.

just a personal opinion but A/T or M/T tires should only go on a max diameter rim of 18 inches. I know the trend says otherswise, but that's why it is a trend and will fade....fast.

I am running 33/12.50/R20 Mickey Thompson ATZs on 20" Fuel rims. Check out my album or my post "2012 is Here" under the 3rd Gen section.

i liked my 275/55 20 cooper zeon LTZ's i had on my lifted excursion.. perfect size IMO even for the bigger truck w/out loosing too much because of height.
