Default Tire size lowered fx2

I just picked up an 08 fx2. I'm gonna put some drop shackles on the rear and I'm wondering what tire size I can go up to? I'm thinking 275/60/20, should that cause any issues since it's not much bigger than the stock?

Thanks guys

I use this site for tire size reference. https://tiresize.com/chart/

I measured my tire height before I lowered it and then took an educated guess as to what size I would need once the truck was lowered. Then I looked at all the different tire sizes until I had a combo that was easy to find and fit the look I was shooting for. Hope that helps.

Thanks man. I think they'll fit ok since they're only an inch bigger than the 275/55s on it now. But I'm going with the falken Wildpeak so it'll be a bigger tread tire and they're priced really well.

I thought about 305/55/20 but I figured that wide a tire would cause rubbing slightly

My 2015 lowered with Beltech 3/5.5 but rear was too low and hit axle/frame so I installed Tuff Country Add-A-Leaf in the rear. I have 305/45-22 on 22x9.5-31 Dub Ballers S116 all around and I have ZERO clearance issues.
