RC leveling kit tire size question

Postby wvwoods [OP] » Oct 18 2011, 6:48pm

I know you guys see these questions all of the time but I have searched this for weeks with many different answers and am having a hard time finding the answer with my setup. I have a 2008 Silverado 4 wheel drive and am going to install a 2 inch Rough Country leveling kit and need to know what size tires to run on my stock 20 inch rims. I find lots of threads about 17 and 18 inch wheels and have even called Rough Country with lots of different answers.
I don't mind if i have to do some trimming to the plastic but really want minimal problem with rubbing here. I need to order tires so please help me out here.

If I were you I would probably go with a 275/60/20. It's just about 33" tall and 11" wide. Or possibly a 285/55/20 which is about 32.25" tall and 11.75" wide. I wouldn't go too much wider than though because of how narrow the stock wheels are. Unless the 20's are wider than my 17's are.
