3/5 drop and 20x8.5 with 5.5” backspace, biggest tire?

[Slammedchevy01]

Thinking of moving my boyd coddington billets to my 2003 Tahoe that had 3/5 mcgaughys kit.

Currently Tahoe has 275/55/20 on 2015 LTZ rims and needs tires. Should/can I stick with 275/55 or go down a size or 2? Thought about a 285/50/20but that may rub I believe.

My old billet wheels had a 20x8.5 with 6.0 backspace to fully tuck so I’m just shy of that.

Truck has about a 3/5 and 275/45/20, no rubbing minus passenger rear if load in bed.

Better get the rear gap on the Tahoe fixed before you put a 275-45-20 on there.

Thanks, made a post on that too lol. Don’t plan on running a 275/45 on Tahoe, trying to figure out what tire I can run with my backspacing. Think 285-50 may be too wide, current 275/55 looks a bit stuffed.
