    Tire size for 20s

    Got a set of Nnbs 20s the other day. Still have stock size tires on them. Way to tall of a tire for my truck. It sits way to high on top of tires nearly rubbing without being turned. So needing a new sized tire. I dot want to run a rubber band tire. But needing a much smaller sidewall. Post up some pics of the tires y'all are running and the exact size. Truck has a 3/5 drop so help me out guys.
    Off hand I was thinking around a 255/45 or along those lines.

    Isn't that almost the exact size that comes on 08s? I think Infact that is what is mounted on these wheels currently

    Shouldn't be. I believe the 275/45's are just about 28". I think they're a good size.

    275/45/20 is a 29.2-29.7 looks good on any nbs with a 2", 2/4", or 4/6" drop...

    All personally opinion... Tire place will.be able to tell you... A 265/50/20 is a good lookin tire especially in nitto 420s!!!

    These 29 inch tires on my 03 are going to beat the **** out of my truck on every bump. Keep in mind Arkansas roads are about as smooth as trail riding in most states. Anyone got pics of a smaller sized tire on 20s?
