Factory Wheels with Aftermarket Tire Thread

[GolfR]

I have 285/60/20’s KO2’s on factory sport wheels without a level. Fits 99% perfect. Just a tiny bit of rubbing at full turn on the rubber fairing in front. I shaved off a milliliter using a dremel.

I'm very confused here, rubbing (minor) with 285/60s and no rubbing reported with 285/65s???

Confused on that aswell ?

I dunno. Could be the chunkier tread of the ko2’s? Others in this forum happily report 285/65/20’s with absolutely zero rubbing. All i can tell you is that my ‘21 xlt fx4 did rub with my upgraded tires. But it was ever-so-slight. Only at full turn, grazing the front rubber dam. Nothing concerning

I'm wondering if the front bumper variances between trim levels is making a difference here. When I look at how much room there is at the front of the tire on my KR, there appears to be a mile of space to the air dam and front bumper. I think I will run out of room on the rear crash bar way before I hit the stuff up front.

Anyone ever ran Deegan 38 AT’s? They have good reviews, but there are not very many. I do like the low weight. These are stock size, but I just want something better looking than the Hankook’s that look like a good boat trailer radial .

Do you have a leveling kit?

For the life of me, I don't see how they load those trucks without causing damage to every one of them.

If I loaded them there would be damage to everyone of them including damage to myself.

That looks awesome.

I have my KO’s delivering on Monday

rugged country 2.5 leveling kit came in yesterday. Not sure if anyone has feedback on this kit.

a youtube video i found...stock sport 20's no level with 33x12.5 ridge grapplers....
look too small for me...he should of went with a 295/60...

I'm looking at running a set of 305/55/20 on my sport 20's to give me a small bump in height and some more meat for width. This size also has a bonus of coming in a 116 P/XL load rating which saves nearly 18# over the 33/12.5's in this video at essentially the same size. Depending how much my trailer makes the truck squat, I'll either leave the suspension stock or remove the rear block to reduce the factory rake a bit.

Obviously height with this size isn't a concern since numerous people are running a much taller 285/65/20's without an issue. My worry is the width interfering with the UCA. This guy didn't seem to have any problems, but I'd love to see some more examples of these shorter/wider tires on OEM wheels.

Sport 20" Wheels Powdercoated Matte Black with 275/65/20 Ridge Grapplers....NO Level NO RUB!

Running 285/65/20 KO2’s on stock rims no level, no rub. I will be putting 2” level on as soon as it arrives.

I had the dealer swap the tires from my trade ,same size Wildpeaks AT3 only had 1k on them so I figured it was worth a shot. The stock "AT" tires are a joke and would have been replaced either way.

Here are a few additional pics.

Just wondering if you think this would also fit a 2WD of the exact same truck/wheel combo? I love the 295/70/18 looks on the truck but since I'm new to the truck world I'm not sure if it matters if the truck is 2WD or 4x4.
