Yeah I have the stocker 20's. I like em and just wish I could find someone running nitto terra's on them. They are going to be costly and I was hoping for some info on the tread life road noise. I like a little howling but am more interested in the tread life and sizes being used on these 20's.

I have found out that my LT275/65-R-20's will fit under my truck with no mods. Of course I have not seen this to verify, but I was assured of the fit.....not to step on anyones toes in here. If it works out I will definatley post pics. I will put them to the test first on rough hunting grounds.

Snake - First off welcome to the boards. As far as that tire fitting your truck, yes it may be able to fit without a leveling kit, but it will be tight and you'll probably have to do some trimming. If you were to add a 2" leveling kit it would be a much better and you could get away with zero trimming.
I don't think you'd have any problem putting that size tire on your stock 20's. Good luck and get us some pictures when you get it done.

Thanks a lot for the comments. I wish someone was running this tire on their stocker 20"s. (mainly for the photos and comments). I will damn sure chime in when I get them mounted and give a run-down on the outcome.

Hello all, I am new to this forum game. I need some info regarding my 2006 F-150 FX4 supercrew. I have factory 275/55R-20's right now and I want to go to the Nitto 275/65R-20's. Can I do this without lifting or leveling? Is anyone running this tire on the factory 20" wheels?
okay

Well my tires are on, and for all that said they would not fit, they do and no they do not rub. I made sure of that before I drove off. They still have full turning clearance and have not touched even under bumpy conditions under full crank. The only thing left is to put the tires in a bind under 100% suspension flex. Overall I am pleased with the look. I will post some pics for you non-believers as soon as I can upload some pics on my work pc.
