Decided to try a different tire size this go 'round. I have been running 285/50/20 General Grabber UHP's for about 7 years, then I found out General had 295/50/20 in the same tire. It's just a little taller and a hair wider but I think it fills up the wheelwell much better. No rubbing to speak of, the wheels are 20x8.5, and the rear is dropped 2" with a drop shackle. Just thought I would share case anyone else was considering this tire size.
