The only thing I do not like about 20's or larger wheel is loosing the sidewall which kills the ride.While I do realize that they are trucks and should not ride like a car,I am not impressed with the ride of the wheel/tire combo on my 05 at all.I am about due some new sneakers so before I give up I am going to try a different set of them and then if I have to I will slide mine down a few sizes wheel wise and try some 18's instead.

yeah I agree with you about the ride same thing can happen if you are running 35's or 37's with 17" wheels. I run 20" wheels with with 35's so my side wall is about the same as stock.
 
I have less sidewall. I think my ride comfort is better. With my AT tires I had them high in pressure so the sidewall didn't as much so turning performance was improved. The large flexing sidewalls added some uncertainty to quick lane changes...

I like the look of the nitto. Anyone run these?

Yeah, it's a truck. Yes I do like to grip in the corners. So a handling tire is a plus for me. I love turning out of a clover leaf in 4x4 as quick as beemers, right now the nitto grapplers push sooner then I know the truck's suspension can handle on a smooth surface. :)

I went through eight of those tires in about two months. They would separate on the outside... every single one of them. I switched to Toyo Proxes and have been very happy, they are way quieter, and hook up really awesome.

So far so good. no issues. I may do the toyo's next time.
 
Ya they rub when you turn sharp to get in a parking spot

I only ask because I had a set of these wheels on my truck with 33's and the rubbed the rear of the front fenders at full lock slightly. I would think 35's would rub pretty bad. How were they with a leveling kit?
