Dumb question i know guys. But i am looken to buy some twenties and i need to know what kinda measurments i need? My truck is bagged and lays frame. It has drop spindles and is a regular cab with front disc brakes and rear drums. It has a parallel 4 link out back as well. Don't know what else to tell you. I need to know any info regarding wheel measurements. Offset width etc. I was told to run 255-35-20's. But that seams small for everyday use? I know someones gotta know this. And before you say it no im not doen 22's or bigger and yes it will be bodydropped in the future. I can't afford 22's or i'd run'em. Any help would be much appriciated. Thanks fellas.

255-35-20 are fine i drove my dayly for 2 yrrs on those tires with no problems but i would go with a bigger tire for a full size

Yeah i was thinking maybe a 275/40 would be a nice tire size for a fullsize

a 245/40/20 is a little larger than a 255/35/20 and will ride alot better. the 245 is 28" diam and the 255/35 is 27"

So whats the offset and all that the 20's have to be in order for them to tuck and what not?

on an 8.5 wide wheel 10mm to 18mm works great.

a buddy has 20x9.5 with a +18mm offset and they are perfect
