Default Advice on these 3 wheel/tire setups

Two months after ordering my truck it finally gets here next week. Fx4 Screw, 6.5 bed. Just got off the phone with someone very helpful at West Kentucky Customs and have decided on one of these packages. Yes, I've searched for pics, etc, but would still love to know your thoughts. I think all three would look great, just really don't know which to pick:

1. No level, 285/55/20 Nitto Terra Grapplers, 20x9 XD Monster Chrome. $2478.

2. 2.5 Leveling kit, 3" block, 305/55/20 Nitto Terra Grapplers, 20x9 XD Monster Chrome. $2299.

3. 2.5 Leveling kit, 3" block, 295/60/20 Nitto Terra Grapplers, 20x9 XD Monster Chrome. $2399.

Thanks for any photos and/or thoughts on this.

Are you going to do any towing with your truck?

Will you need to park anywhere like a garage with a 6'10" max height?

Do you care about gas mileage? Or are you going for looks/performance mostly?

Either way, they're all pretty sweet. I realize you're just figuring out the details. Make sure to post pics whenever your truck gets in and you get your wheels/tires/lift done

The 305's should fit without a lift. There's a guy on one of the forums with a Platinum with a 305/55/20 tire in his gallery. I could be wrong, but it didn't look like it had a level kit on it. I don't remember seeing it mentioned anywhere in there.

Whichever you choose, do the level. You will really like it. Really looks good on these trucks. Have fun.

As of now this is strictly for looks. I want a more aggressive tire/wheel, and a little more height. I may tow at some point, not now. My garage height is 7 foot. Will these put the height past that?
