I ended up with the 275/65-R20 KO2s - got a deal from 4wheel parts I could not pass up.

 

With the 2.5" front leveling kit the fenders measure 39.5" front and 40.5" in rear w/stock block.

 

Before and after:

I love the wheels. I couldn't find them for a reasonable price so I got the next best ones. lol

Hello All!

Thanks to this web site and the kind people who have given the information I have gotten here, I was able to pull the plug and go with my leveling kit and 285/65/R20's.

Here are the specifics - Work was performed by RMT Off Road in Fort Collins, Colorado. I highly recommend them for ANY work you need done. I used them because they were an authorized installer to save my new truck warranty as this truck only has 6,000 miles on it.

  • Traxda 3"+1" leveling kit - (before tires, I gained 2-3/4" height at the front)
  • OEM 20" x 9" wheels - No Spacers
  • 285/65/R20 BFG KO2's

Measurements after Level & KO2's

At front license plate - ground to the top of the bumper at body line - 25-3/16" Originally...............Leveled - 29-7/16"

At receiver hitch - 18-13/16" Originally...............Leveled 20-5/16" 

At front fender - 36-1/4" Originally..................Leveled 40-1/8"

At back fender - 38-1/2" Originally..................Leveled 41-3/4"

I get very minor rubbing at full lock, only on the driver side. It rubs about a quarter size spot at the rear of the well lining, toward the frame. I will tie this back with a zip tie this spring when the weather is warmer. It is so slight that I can wait until then to do this.

 

Thanks again to everyone on this site for their input and help.
