hey, i just wanted to ask politely if you can please just type in lower case? it seems as if you're shouting and it makes it much harder to read.

but i think they will need to know the offset of the wheels first so they can answer your question.

I don't think you can stuff a 285 on a 8.5" wheel, I don't think a 275 will work either, well maybe with a 4x4 look.

the guys are right...275 is too wide for 8.5 rims...

Stop at 255/35-20 on the 20x8.5. If you want to go 275/30-20 or 285/30-20, contact Wheel Experts for a proper set of staggered-width wheels, such as 20x8.5 & 20x10.
