I just bought a new 06 LBZ and I want to leave this one at stock height. I am willing to crank the torsion bars up to what ever. I was wanting to know if I can fit the 20x10 Eagle 114 with a 305/50/20 without much problem. I did a search and couldn't come up with the answer. Any help would be great. If anyone would have a pic of this setup would help greatly.

I think the only issue with that will be the width of the tire, otherwise I don't see any issues with that setup. Might have to install some keys to get the height in the front to clear them. Basically your setup will be a 32" tall tire that will be 12" wide, so you might have some rub on the bumper/valence..

If the offset is right you could likely get away with it with cranked torsion bars and some cutting.

MarcusJ Thanks for the thread but from what I have been reading the 305/55/20 rub anyway you go. Thats why I was looking at the 305/50/20. Thanks again for the info.

I've seen a few dmax's w/ 305/55/20's on 20x8.5 114's. Still had to do a little bit of trimming.

I've got 20x8.5's with +20 offset and 305/50/20's and didn't do any trimming when it was stock height. I have even more clearance between the front valance and the tire now since the trucks lowered.

Anyone know the offset of these wheels in 20x10. I have a chance to buy a set real cheap but they are 10's not 8.5's. Anyone have any experience with this?

edge82, thats exactly what i had. 305/50/R20, 1 day then i bought the 8.5x20 114's. my truck sits stock and the offset on the 20x10 will rub comming and going. eagle only makes 1 offset in that wheel. they stick out about 4" on the front and a little less than 3 on the rear. i didnt turn the bars at all and they hit the metal part of the bumper. the valance needs major trimming as well.

From what I am finding out that it is all in how much offset each wheel has. I am looking at the Helo Max's. From what I am reading the Helo's have the correct offset. Thanks for all the help

I am also looking to go with the 114's in a 20" wheel. I wanted to go with the 20x8.5 but I can not find a 285 tire to go on it. I think the 305 tire would not look very good and be to wide on the 8.5. I have a set of the 305 nitto's on a 20x10 rim and it looks good on the jeep, But I dont think I could fit them on my truck.

Here are the options for the 114's
20x10 with -21 offset
20x8.5 with -1 offset
20x8.5 with +20 offset

I wanted to run a 285/60R20 tire or 285/55R20 tire on the 8.5s but I cann't seem to fid anything that matchs. Anyone have soem ideas?

They are going on a 06 3500 CCLB SRW at stock height. I have the keys turned up 4 rounds now.
