No level, no rubbing

To me your front wheel looks huge compared to the back. Is it just the pic.does it Looks good in person? I think its do to the difference in wheel well space.. that is what mine looks like without a level. Thats why I feel I will need to level it.

If you don't like the illusion of the front tire looking bigger than the back currently; why would this change with a bigger tire? Why not just do a level?

so you think without a level my 20x9+20 mm offset at factory height would rub with285/60/20 ko2 tires?

Front tire has the illusion that its bigger than the rear because it fills the well so much more. I may have to at least level it to get the look I want. You are correct your truck looks great! So you feel if I go with the 285/60/20 KO2 I will be fine no rubbing no clearance issues? Then I can see what that looks like. And then decide if it needs leveled?

you shouldn't rub ... may have a very slight rub at full lock in reverse

what about 275/65/20? a touch thinner but a taller sidewall. can't help with whether it rubs or not but the thinner tire might help.

hes fine with 285 60 20s K02... they look wide enough with the sidewall he needs.... a 275 is too skinny looking especially if its a non LT tire

Just get a level and not worry about it.

Really if you rub you are going to have very minimal rubbing, and only at full lock; not enough to worry about until you then get a level.
