HedSwim Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 All, I spent several days combing through the forums looking for info on the fit of the Nitto NT 420S (305/50R-20) tires on Stock SS wheels. Finally picked up a set, and just got back from the tire shop. Yes, I KNOW the truck is dirty and needs attention bad, but figured I'd get these pics up to help should anyone else be looking for images. I'd read several times about 'bulging' sidewalls, and the tire protruding from the fender well by as much as a quarter inch, but I don't feel like I have either of these issues. If I do, then they don't bother me... Truck drives solid, straight. It's been raining today, so I haven't lit them up just yet to get my own feel on traction. Anyway, on to the photographic evidence for others to make their own assessments: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O2 WS6 TA Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 I've got the 420s in the same size, they look just fine IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JF-03-SS Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 They look great, miss my Nitto's. How much you pay for the tires mounted & balanced? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HedSwim Posted February 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 They look great, miss my Nitto's. How much you pay for the tires mounted & balanced? $850, have a $40 rebate on the way too. I know there's probably someone around here who could have gotten me a better price, but I needed tires stat. Stock Goodyears were past done on the front end...

HedSwim Posted February 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 I won't tell you what I paid when I bought mine. Eh, it's okay. Peace of mind in getting my little girl around town and up and down the interstate safely, immediately, instead of worrying about an imminent blow out for another week or two is worth at least a couple hundred bucks to me.

zachm89 Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 i paid right around 800-850 for mine also, and like you i NEEDED them right then and there. I could have gotten them cheaper if I had time to waste waiting on them but oh well. Funny thing is when I got mine the shop I got them from had one tire in stock, had to get one other one from one warehouse and the other two from another warehouse because the backorder on those tires was damn near 6 months! I lucked out that they could locate 4 for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superredss Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 :thumbs: very good looking! I envision a set of those as well in the near future, the goodyears are getting kinda slick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6.0vortech Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 Nice I just got me some Pirelli Scorpion Zero's in 295/45/R20! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CustomChevyGuy Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 i love those tires. i've got the Nitto 420s in 305/40/22 on my truck, and they completely changed the feel of it! they grip tons better then the el-cheapo's the previous owner had on there. im curious about the width on the stock rim - do they rub at all ?
