Meh, you'll be all right , Yolo!!!:driver:
I just looked up those tires , they're not as knobby as I assumed. I was thinking of the older style grabbers.
My Goodyear wranglers have done great in the snow. Used GM factory tires, both for my 20s and 18s.
Had michelins on my Silverado and they were amazing in winter but yeah they're also $$$
I know love loved both sets of Michelin’s that I’ve had! Just expensive. Well maybe I’ll pick up them up and roll on them for the winter and then Dave up for a good set of Michelin defenders in the spring. Lol.

If I go to a 275/60/R20 tire from a 275/55/R20 which is the stock size, what would I need to change in my front end, if anything, to accommodate the bigger tires and not have any rubbing anywhere?
You wont have to change anything at all if you max out your keys-i choose to install 1 or 2 inch higher keys.I have those exact tires on mine and i did keys only.I never liked the the 275/55/20 to small of a tire the 60 fits the wheel well alot better for height.

We purchased some Silverado 18” Z71 takeoff rims and dropped them off at the Nokian dealer to have 275/65x18 Hakkapeliita R2’s installed. I’ll try and get a side-by-side picture before they are mounted.

Revs per mile difference seems minimal.
