Nice truck, tires look great!!
Technically, going from 275/55/20 to 285/60/20 your speedo should be off by about 3.5 mph at 75mph.
Here is a link that shows it:

Used 3-IN-ONE RVcare Rubber Seal Conditioner on my panoramic sunroof to alleviate the squeaks. 1 hour later my sunroof started shaking like crazy when opening and I have to help it close by pushing it while holding the close button. Otherwise it moves about 2 inches and stops. It started...
I had Nitto Recon Grappler 275/55/20 LT E rated for a couple years and they are pretty loud and were worthless on wet pavement. They also degraded ride quality. I had them inflated at 51 PSI as recommended by Nitto.
I just got highway tires now and cannot believe how quiet they are and ride...
Calibration with TazerDT is super easy. I set the tire size to 33" and speedometer now matches waze. Before it was off by 1 or 2 mph depending on speed.
The default setting for my 32" tires was 32.18, in case anyone is curious
Looks like the tech used a ton of whatever grease they use to mount the tires and did not clean them after.
My tires looked pretty much like that yesterday after installation and right before the tech cleaned them.
I don't have nubs in my new tires either btw, and I am sure that mine are new.
I actually ended up at Pep Boys for tires. I got the Cooper Adventurer 275/60/20, they were running a special and also waived installation cost. The tires ended up being $600 less OTD than the Michelin.
here, this thread has ALL the info you need for you topper:

I followed the instructions posted there when I installed my camper top awhile back. They are way better than Leer instructions, especially for wiring the brake...
Thanks,
I'll get the 275/60/20 Michelin LTX M/S2. Coming from LT (E) rated tires for the past couple of years, I bet I will get a nice bump in mpg and quiet highway ride.
