Anyone ever try to squeeze 305/50r20's on a leveling kit 2.5" front 1" rear? Already have the lift waiting at home just trying to figure out tires, probably gonna go with a set of Mastercraft CXT's. Not sure of the specs on the wheels I have they're not eskey's or denali wheels but I know they're 20x9 and I'm already running 275/55's.

I just stuffed 295/55r20's on mine with a CCM 2.5/1 kit. I went with a +10 offset wheel to clear the suspension. If your rims are GM, they are likely +31 offset and I think you will rub suspension with 305's. Of course, I had to do some trimming to clear the inner liners for turning.

You should be okay with that. That is a 32" tire. I have 33s under my truck with a 2.5/1 level and 33x12.5s and have very minimal rubbing and only at full lock. I have factory 22s.

It doesnt squat it any that i can tell. Its just the driveway making it look like it leans more then it does.

I was running 305/50R20s on a 1.5" leveling kit (front only). Slight rub on the rear liner when the rear articulated a lot.

305/55/20 on TGC 2.5 + Bilsteins @ 0.59" and 1" in the rear. Had the same set-up before the Bilsteins. They look short to me now. Next set I'd like 295/60s/

how do you measure how much it lifted? i had a shop do it
Normally guys do it by fender height, ground up thru center of rim to fender lip. But if you didn’t measure before itll be hard to judge. Easy way is to cut the wheel all the way amd look inder the strut or above strut and there should be a new looking spacer either under it or above depending on what lift/level kit they put on

Haha, you have an nbs. I thought you had an nnbs and was thinking something was off with your avatar....whatever no big deal. If they put new keys then its prob just 2” level....again depending on what they put in. As far as angles, ive seen worse but how does it feel and is it making noise. You can always decrank if it wont rub and uf it makes you feel better
