Hm...I may have to call my tire guy tomorrow. Now I'm even more worried.

Do a search and see if you can find someone on here with that setup. A 9 inch wide wheel is only 1/2 inch more then stock so they won't look that bad. You'll still have the 34" height which most people look at anyway. See if your tire man will test fit one first and see how it look's.

Click on the Specifications tab half way down the page.

I want a set of 305/55r20's, but the website lists them at 73.9lbs each! Nitto on the other hand makes an XL rated Terra Grappler in the same size that runs a little less than 50lbs each. I don't need the extra plys as I don't tow or haul so the weight penalty isn't worth it to me.

Toyo lists the 275/65r20 at 56.7lbs each.

I feel you bro. I'm wrestling with the same dilemma. But I can tell you one thing, you can't replace the look of a more aggressive tire.

Yeah I noticed that a few weeks back. I was actually confused as to how their A/T 2 weighed more than their MT in almost the exact same size. I think the 33X12.5 MT only weighed in at 71 or so.

This is the exact same problem i'm having. I'm cancelling my order for the 275/65r20's because I don't think I will be satisfied with the 11 inch wide tire. I may just have to go back to my original plan of 33X12.50 Toyo MT's. They look amazing but weigh soooooo damn much. I wish toyo made the A/T 2 in something like a 295/60R20.

Agreed, but I have to weigh what's more important to me. Having a certain "look", or extra money in my wallet. So far, the wallet is winning.

I've got 275/60r20's, and they're just not wide enough for me.

Nitto makes a Terragrappler in a 295x60x20 (34.4x12.3), it seem's like Toyo would make this size also.

Agreed. I wish these tire companies would look in to making some of their larger sizes in a D load range. It would undoubtedly make the tires lighter. Not all,of us are towing 10000 lbs. I know the Terra Grappler comes in a D load range in a 305 55 20 or something like that. I just don't like the look of the Terra Grapplers. No where near aggressive looking IMO. Looks too much like a road tire.

I've looked. They don't.
