Thanks. Yeah I'll post some pics when it's done. Road noise is almost non-existent. I had RTs before these in a smaller size, and they were a little louder but still not bad at all. I went with AT2s because they were a little lighter with the bigger size, plus with the tread was hoping to not take as big a hit on the gas mileage.

I'm sure I'll end up getting wheel spacers...

Yeah I'm leaning towards the 33 at2 or terra for the next build but in 22s on 4" CST. The exo isn't bad and I tried R/T too but after some wear it starts to pick up on the rear fenders in the cabin. Plus I don't want the extra weight too.

Denton, Anyone,
Getting ready pull the trigger on some tires. 285/60/20 on the factory rims are what I like. I pull a trailer to the max capacity of the vehicle. A little worried about rubbing issues. Does anyone else have experience with 285/60R20. Plan to lift 2.5 in front and 1.0 in the rear. The only reason I plan to lift the rear is to account for the sag when the trailer is hooked up.

Did you ever get those 285/60/20's with the 2.5 level? And do they rub?

I ran 285/65R18 on a 2.5 level with factory rims. The only rub I had was on the upper control arms at full lock. I added 1.5" wheels spacers to them, and had to do some minor inner fender trimming on the front and a little hammer work on the inner fender well on the rear.

what was your original tire size? mine has factory 265/65/18 so going to 285/65/18 would add exactly 1" in height and .8" in width. Just curious.

It would have been the same stock size. I have a 2017 Z71 Tahoe.

I've got 285/60/20's on a 2.25"/1" level and have not experienced any rubbing.

Thanks I really wanted the 285/60's for a little more sidewall but I really really don't want to cut on my rig. What is your offset?

In my opinion, I'd say go for it. Since I've had no rubbing there is no need to cut or trim anything. Fills out the wheel well nicely.

As long as you don't go crazy with the negative offset, the only thing you'll possibly have to trim is the corner piece on the inside front fender. In my opinion the square off stock design doesn't look great anyway and rounding it off gives it a much cleaner look (even though you can only see it if standing at a certain angle and looking down towards the front of the inner fender.

So it sounds / looks like a 2.5”F / 1.5”R setup is indeed a good look. That’s what I bought for my ‘18 Yukon Denali and was questioning it now that I’m about to get it installed (was questioning 1” vs 1.5” in rear).

I bought 305/55r20 Ridge Grapplers to go along with it.
