Default Quick Tire Question

I'm getting my lift and tires and I had a question.

A local shop is doing my lift and I am getting the tires from Discount Tire. Is it possible to run the new tires (275/65/R20) without the lift for about 15 miles to the shop without damaging/rubbing anything?

I can get the lift, go over and get the tires, then go back for the alignment, but if I could get the tires and have the lift and alignment done at the same time it would be less of a hassle.

Thanks for your input.

From what I've been reading on this forum that won't be a problem in fact I think some are running on 285/65/20 with no lift, and no rubbing.

You can run a 285/65/20 with no level. I'm not sure about the 275 but I know the 285 fits.

If rkfvd3's 285's fit your 275's will fit better. They are 1/2"shorter and 1/2" narrower.

Just commenting to say I've confirmed that a 275/65/R20 BFG KO2 tire will not rub on a 2015 RWD F-150 mounted on stock wheels. I'm in between getting tires and the lift this morning and I had it at full crank forwards and in reverse.

I appreciate the feedback.
