Size on '09 factory 20s

I have been off the radar for a while but now I need help. I have an '09 King Ranch and am putting bigger tires on but can't decide on a size. With the procomp deal I'm going to get the xtreme a/t's. I've read on here that the 305/55/20's rub; but is it really bad enough to not buy them? also would I be better off with a 35/12.50? I like the height of the 35's cause it'd look good but I don't want to KILL my fuel mileage and power. Any help please!!!

Do you have a 4x4? If you do, the fitment guidlines for the 04-08's appear to be very close for the 09-10's. The problem on the 04-08's was the backspacing on the OEM 20's which is 6.5 inches. THis put a 305mm (12.50 inch ) wide tire extremely close to the upper ball joint/control arm. So close that some tires rubbed and some didn't. I don't know if this is still an issue on the 09-10's. One solution is a narrower, 285mm (11.50) wide tire. You will have no problems with a 285/55-20 (33x11.50) or 285/65-20 (35x11.50) if you don't want to try to fit a 305/55-20 (33x12.50) or a 35x12.50-20.

See if you can do what I did. When I ordered mine last year, the 4x4 shop ordered two sizes and put them on to see if they'd rub. They also gave me a price close to the online price. They didnt match it, but I preferred the flexability vs a few $$ saved. Also, I have the XTREME A/T and love them!!!

Thanks guys, I've looked and think i'm going to go with the new dura trac. Either a 275/65/20 or a 285/60/20. I don't know if I want a half inch taller or a half inch wider.....

go with the BFG A/T with their 285/65/20 and you'll get both!
