Just curiouse, is the suspension different with the hoe and the truck when it comes to a drop ? I ended up getting rid of my 225 wheels cause I was told they won't work on a 2/4 but I've seen it done many times..

Just curiouse that's all

Awesome thank you, I'll be going with 245/45/20 and 295/40/20s. The front tire will be the same height at your 275/40/20
