18x8 and 20x10 tire sizes

What size tires are the most popular for a 18x8 front and 20x10 rear wheel combo. Truck will be on bags.
Thanks

Re: 18x8 and 20x10 tire sizes

I've got 245/45r18's on my fronts and 275/40r20's to go on the rear. The 275/40r20 is almost exactly the same width as a 20x10" rim. It may be a little more sidewall than your wanting to run though since you're bagging it. I'd bet a 245/40r18 and a 275/35r20 would be a good matching set for a bagged truck. Then again, you could probably get away with a much wider tire in the rear.

Here's mine, rear tire unmounted next to the front wheel.

They're General G-Max AS03's. They look pretty aggressive but I haven't gotten to drive on them much yet. Decent price for them at discount tire.

245/45/18 up front. 295/40/20 out back. It's a stepside.

I'm running the same as Jimbabe, 245/45/18 front and 295/40/20 rear also on a bagged stepper, just not as low as Jimbabwe's lol.

Lol I've had mine mounted for a couple of years unfortunately my truck has been in pieces the whole time. What is the backspacing on the rear TT II's. Looks awesome.

Re: 18x8 and 20x10 tire sizes

I'm just joking! It's good to see more steps getting laid down low. And practically a neighbor.
The rear backspace is 5.25", but I'm using a 1.25" spacer/adapter because If/when I get 22's in the rear, I want a 4" backspace, so this way I wouldn't have to narrow the rear and buy axles again!
