Hey guys, I looked through all the threads and it seems like 275/55/20 is the safe bet, but will a 285/55/20 fit on stock suspension without rubbing?
I have seen a few pictures of this setup and was told it does not rub, but from posts here I am not sure? I will have the wheel arch protection and no plans to change suspension in anyway.

Thanks for advice!

Have you checked this thread (and likely the first posting that they update)? https://landroverforums.com/forum/20...ogress-101530/

Hopefully what you seek is in there. Go to the top of the forum and click "Search" and choose "Advanced" if you want to accelerate things. I don't know the specific answer, but I bet it's already in there. Good luck!

 

Yes I did, and it does not say anything specifically about 285/55 which may be my answer. Just checking as it seems there are a bunch of members with redbourne wheels on

This 90 has 20x9in wheels with offset of ET 30mm. He's running 33x11.5 Ridge Grapplers, which is pretty close to a 285x55-20 sized tire. He says there is "zero rubbing with this setup". I have a 90 on order and plan on running the same (or very similar setup)

For comparison, the Redbourne wheels are 20x8.5in and ET 25, so in theory, it should work, but I can't personally say for certain.

 

Appreciate that! I dont mind doing a little fender lining cutitng etc if necessary but just dont want to have to put in a lift of any kind...

 

The lift is not the issue here, as it is the tyre that catches the wheel arch liner when on lock. My 275/55r20 on standard rims just catch the front mudflaps on lock whether the suspension is lifted or not.

 

Got it. So its sounding like it may not be worth the risk to try to go with the 285/55/20. Was hoping there were a few members that were successfully running that size with no rubbing issue.

 

I've been working with ElementWheels.com (they have a physical location here in Phoenix) on a set of 20" wheels and tires for my 110X and his system indicates that the 285/55/20 will work (as will the 275/55/20) I can't say yet from personal experience, but rather what his fitment application indicates, so FWIW, my plan is to go with the 285/55/20 - Toyo Open Country AT3's

 

Thats encouraging! Maybe ill still give the 285/55s a shot

 

Why would you even consider taking the risk for 10mm of additional width? Won’t perform any different. Won’t even look any different to be honest.
