Is this the right tire size for my truck? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My truck is lowered about 4-6 (3/6 in these pictures) and will be a daily driven truck so I want to stay away from a rubber band size tire. I was thinking a 255-45-20 in front and a 295-45-20 or 295-40-20 in the rear. Looks like most here are running a 40 series tire which might be a little thin on the sidewall form me but I dont want too much height either. The tires on the truck now are about 31" tall and the new sizes should be about 1" shorter. Any recomendations/opinions?

Here is the truck they are going on (currently in body shop jail)
