Will 305 55 20 work on a leveling kit?

[robsatx]

My wife wants her Tahoe lifted, I am wondering if a 305 55 20 will work? Do I need to get new wheels also? Will it work with the 2.5 inch leveling kit? Any pics?
thx!

Dont know how much difference it is but a friend just had them put on a 05 sierra with no issues

I've seen bigger tires but I think you will be just find...

I am also curious about using a 305/55/20 with the truxxx leveling kit. I know I can use the 285/55/20, but I am afraid that this tire will look too small after the tahoe is raised. Would it be possible to fit them without trimming if I used wheels with a different offset than the stock wheels?

I run 305/50/20 street tires on my Yukon without any lift. I had slight (very minor) rubbing at full lock left but they look great. The extra size on the sidewall might make it an issue with the 305/55's though.

Here is a link for a calculator and these are over an inch taller than mine. I think that with the leveling kit you should be fine.

Do you have pics? Also did you use the factory wheels?

using the stock wheels will make it easier to fit them...or an aftermarket with similar specs to the stock ones. i think they will look and fit good but like i said some trimming will be needed on the plastics.
