I'm looking to make my last mod of the year in the next month. I have a 2011 Screw FX4 with 20" factory wheels. I don't want to go away from my wheels and go aftermarket. I've been running 275/65R20 Toyo MT and Nitto Terra Grappler as my last two sets of tires. Both have performed well for me. The opinion I'm looking for is if it's worth taking a look at 295/65R20 and beefing up my tires in the wheel well?? I've read a lot and guys say they don't have to trim. Then I read a thread 10 minutes later and same setup had to trim plastic. I'm sure my tire dealer will try to steer me away from this, but his loss if he doesn't want my money. Def not looking to go the 35x12.50 route because I want my tire to stay inside the fenders. Opinions, pics, and general comments are welcome. Thanks guys.

You will definitely take a hit on mpg's w/ the 295 's.

It depends if you're main concern is fuel mileage than 275's may be a better option. But if you want a beefier look than 295's are the way to go. I have 295/60/20 with a 2" level and no rubbing. I also average 17 MPGs with a 91 tune.

This might help as I went through the same dilemma
275/65/20


296/60/20

I also get 17mpg with mine and tune.

Trimming needed and still rub on full flex. (Have mud flaps.)

Damn!!! That's a tight fit. Have to watch your psi for clearance?

Mexico, *******. Do you ever contribute to this forum, or do you dump on all threads?
