Anyone think this size tire would fit?

I can get a good deal on a set of 275/65R20 for my 2wd 2500HD, but am not sure if they will fit or not.

I currently have 275/55R20 on the truck now and not sure if another .63 inches of height is going work or not.

The tires are used with 3k miles and I would be driving to pick them up from a Private Individual (ebay), so test fitting would not be an option.

Anyone have a idea if these would work or not. The truck is stock with no lift. I am thinking about cranking on the torsion bar bolts to try and get some clearance???? Any advice?

no you will need a leveling kit or a small lift to clear them since it is a 34" tall tire.

I have 285/75/16 on mine and just needed a little TLC but no kit, I dont know if the 20" rim would make it any different
