Did you just get that? I was eyeballing those rims, trying to decide which direction i want to go with the Yukon.

Yep, had it a lil over a week, loving it.

285/55r20 Toyo R/T

I am looking at installing this exact wheel and tire combo. I am coming from factory 22" rims. How is the ride on Toyo's. I am debating the Toyo's vs the new BFG's. Thanks

My 305/55 have a slight rub at full lock in reverse, but since the 285 would be skinnier they might work...

Looks good, I am torn between a 305/55/R20 Mickey Thompson or the 285/60R20 Goodyear Duratrac. I got 63k miles and still going on my Mickeys, so I am partial to them but they dont make the 285/60r20 and only can find a Duratac in that size. Decisions, Decisions..........

Do you think a 275/60R20 would fit with your setup? I have your exact vehicle, You have a 2.25" leveling kit, I am installing a 2.5" leveling kit. I am trying to stay with Mickey Thompsons, and wondering if a tire .7" taller, two inches narrower than yours, would fit? Any thoughts?

A 275 should definitely fit as it is shorter by .2" as for the 285 I believe it would fit with the same rubbing I have now. Let us know how it turns out.

The RT isnt as quiet as people have said. Unless you just want the aggressive look of the MT or RT go with the AT2. The ride with the RT is smooth not rough at all. Not a loud roar but they do hum a good a bit. Ive used Toyo's for awhile and from my experience I won't use another brand. Best out there in my opinion.

During the leveling process, did you get any feedback about kits that level from the top or bottom or both? Some kits seem to level by adjusting at the top of the strut, others level by adding a bit at the top and the bottom of the strut. Does it matter much? Any significant difference in performance or stress on the CV joint and shaft?

I could be way over thinking this, but it did catch my attention.

Thoughts?
