I know a few of you have run 35×12.5 20 on your AT4,,,has anyone put on 295×65 20 on their truck,,,almost identical dimensions but the 295 are a couple of hundred less the the 35

Great,,,I was debating between the 295/72/20 or the 35/12.5/20,,,almost the exact size except the 35 are about an inch wider and a couple hundred dollars more,,,think like you if we are using the stock wheels the 295 fit the wheel better,,,the 35 are made for a much wider wheel

That size will work for a mall crawler but off road in the right conditions--imagine the drive way example except going down a steep embankment in full wheel lock and one side hits the bottom first in not even full lock. Will not be pretty. Do not ask me how I know these things-----learned the hard way years ago. That is why if I need to add a lift and do some cutting if necessary--cry once and install it correctly rather than cry later.

I put 295/65R20 Toyo Open Country C/T's on my truck yesterday, and had a very slight rub on the passenger side wheel well liner at full lock. I ended up cutting about 1" of the material off the rear corner of the liner with a pair of sharp utility shears. The guy at the tire shop mentioned that he put the exact same tires on a 2500 the week before but had no rubbing at all because it did not have the wheel well liners... Just an FYI.
