Anyone happen to know who owns the truck in this photo??? It's in the august Diesel power mag issue.
Wondering what wheel/tire size this person is running....

Looks like a 305/55/20 Nitto Terra Grappler.....on a 9.5 or so rim.

That is what I am thinking but want to be sure.
I really like the way this looks and when comparing other 305/55/20 combos (from other TDP members pics on this site) this combo looks better IMO.

That sounds about right. My brother had 305/50/20 Toyo A/Ts and they looked similar.
I have 285/60/18 and I'm reconsidering my next tire choice after seeing this truck.

My whole deal is when looking at other trucks on this site with what they say is the same tire size (305/55/20), the tire/wheel fitment doesn't look as good as the tire/wheel fitment on the truck shown in the pic above.
Of most of the pics i have seen on this site, the tires look like they have more rounded edges (or side walls) vs. the tire/wheel combo in the pic above (which appears to have a straight side wall).
That leads me to believe the they are running wider wheels than what the person in this pic is running.

That's Chad's (Sp33d) truck at the Diesel Power Challenge. He was an alternate.

I haven't received a response yet, but I will post it when I do get one or maybe he'll post it up here for both of us.

I am also interested in wheel size and offset. I have seen this tire on anywhere from a 8.5 to 11 wide wheel. I really like the way the side wall looks on his particular size wheel......
