Tire sizing for reverse leveled w/ 20" wheels
 
Planning on taking my 2" leveling kit off the front and dropping the rear 2". Looking for recommendations and/or pictures of different tire sizes. Going to run 20x9 wheels.

33/12.5/20's with -44 rub up front stock height. even with stops welded on. a 305 somethings on a 20x9 should work well.

Thank you! I'm thinking around 305/50 r20, which would put it at a 32x12.

my cousin run a 295 something 20 on his third gen. it took him a long time to find that size but they don't rub at all on 20x9's. also a mud tire makes the rubbing game worse. were like a 420 has a rounded sidewall.

On my pos 24v I have 20x9s with 305/55/20. They rub the inner fenders ever so slightly when turning. Stock worn out coils in the front.

Sweet, i'm gonna settle for 305/50 20's and they should clear pretty well. Thinking of going with these for wheels : Pro Comp Alloy Wheels - Pro Comp Series 5050 10 Gauge, 20x9 Wheel with 6 on 5.5 and 6 on 135 Bolt Pattern - Satin Black - 5050-293945 | 4WheelParts.com


And these for tires : $219.98 - Cooper Zeon LTZ - tires | Buy Cooper Zeon LTZ tires at SimpleTire

295 or 305s ive had in the past did not rub

All depends on back spacing of wheel. 20x9 with 5.5 to 5.75 bs will not rub bumper or fender liner with a 13.5 tire even. Will slightly rub on control arm at full lock.

These wheels are a 4.5" offset.
