Holty Posted September 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 what do you guys think about a 285/40/20? i can get the Nitto 420s in that size, but the sidewall will be about 4.48inches compared to stock sidewall of 5.95inches. am i gonna be riding on rubber bands if i go that route?

zippy Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 alright, i broke down and ordered the Nitto 420s in a 265/50R-20. what you guys think? should look ok right? Should look pretty good. They are a nice tire, I've driven many vehicles with them. They make nice black marks and smoke well also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been eying up these Nitto 420's for awhile now. hopefully they will be lighter also to help my ET's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holty Posted September 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 well, my new Nitto tires should be in tomorrow. Special thanks to foxyss for providing me with pics of EXACTLY what they will look like on my truck, even with a 2-2 drop. this just goes to show how great this site is. with just a little searching and a little help from members here, i was able to find the exact tires on a lowered 2-2 truck just like mine to see what the tires would look like before purchasing. that is a beutiful thing. i love this place, thanks guys!
