check out 2756520's 34.1 tall or 2955520's 33 tall that will give you more options,. 2855520's are similar size to the 2656020's. the only thing with the 285's is most only take 55lbs of air. I have run BFG ko2's on my last 2 trucks i like them. I don't tow heavy so they last good. michelin makes the defender in a 2656020 and goodyear makes the adventurer in that size too.
Nick,
TY!
I have considered the 285 or 295/55/20's, but they are considerably heavier from what I have found so far vs the stock 265/60/20. These two sizes are still a slim consideration though. If the 285's are an E rated tire (which is what I need for our 2500HD) they have a max of 80psi, just like the stock 265's.
Regarding the 275/65/20, I haven't found any info that states they will fit, without cranking the t-bars a fair amount. And even then I think (been a while since I researched that size) they still rub some. Even the 285 or 295/55's need a little cranking if I recall correctly.
