Default Follow up on tire size
Do we have a final word on tire fit for the D5? Will 275 55 R20 tires fit without a lift, especially at entry height? No trimming, rubbing, or cutting? I'd like to hear from owners who have installed them and any problems that have occurred. Please no speculation, just owners running them.

Any impact on gas mileage?
Have you tried them offroad, any rubbing issues then?

Speedometer seems to be closer to correct then pre change based on GPS. No noticeable impact on gas mileage.

No off roading yet. Photo is in access height

They will 100% Fit. Hub Centric Wheel spacers recommended though if going for a knobby off-road tire, may rub on the front wheel well when turning

Thanks abran. Definitely on my shopping list when the stock Pirellis are done.
Good to know there is very little impact on gas mileage and no issues.
