I have Black Rhino Traverse 22X10 which are lighter than the stock 22's with 305/44 22 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. In my opinion the look it's amazing. I've never had as many compliments on a vehicle as I get on this truck. I stayed away from 285/55 because of weight, ride quality loss and power loss. The combination of my Black Rhino wheels being so light and 305/45 22 Ridge Grapplers it's lighter than stock. It rides better than stock. More planted, super smooth and quiet, and it is quicker if the line with the weight loss. I have added Borla S-Type, aFe Stage 2 Magnum Cold Air Intake and Pulsar Tuner but the first thing I did was wheels and tires and immediately notice a big improvement over stock 22's with the very "passenger car" 285/45 tires.I originally had 35x12.5R22 on it and rode to rough. Will a 305/45/22 ride much better and will it still look OK? Anyone else have this so I could see a pic? Thanks! The pis is my stock tire.

Thank you!! I'm a huge fan of the 305/45 22. The 1.5" height gain looks nice with 285/55 22 but the weight and harsh ride simply isn't worth it IMHO. Enjoy your truck also! I look forward to pics of what you get!Looks Killer! Thanks for the pics. Enjoy your truck!

Do you have a side view of how much those come out passed the fenders? I'm looking at the same size setup but -12 offset hoping its out an inch or 2. What height do you have the air-ride at in this photo? Awesome truck BTW!I'm running 22x10 -18 wheels with 305 45r22's on my truck. I leveled the truck with links as it's air ride but should give you a bit of an idea. I honestly enjoy the ride alot. I also own a lifted 2500 that would rattle the teeth out of you. But I've had multiple people ride in my 1500 and comment that it's the smoothest truck they've rode in
