305/50/20 tires?
So i'm looking at a lift for my truck like the one in the link below. I was originally looking at a 33/12.50/20 tire but after not really getting a clear answer of fitment(lift, offset, ect..) no matter where i look so i'm lookin at a 305/50/20, link to specs below. Basically what i'm wondering is i wanna run a 20x9 fuel hostage but idk what offset i need and if anyone thinks the 305/50 would look ok with this lift verses a leveling kit. If so what offset is the most common. I'm lookin for a good stance i'd like the tire/rim to be even with the edge of the fender.

I'd suggest +20mm offset cause I think that's the highest the hostages come in 20x9. 305's a wide tire, so I would want as much positive offset as I could get to stock (stock is +31). You're also raising it so that'll help avoid rubbing a lot.
Are you on any other forums? GMFS has a good off-road section that you could probably find what you're looking for a bit easier than around here.

I think you'll be able to clear the 305/55 with this kit. Heard of people using the 305/55 with an average level kit. Is it 4x4?
Buddy of mine has a Vmax 4x4 with a Rough Country level kit on stock 20's running 33x12.5's with no rubbing issues.

I am running a RC leveling kit and 305-55-20 tires with a 20mm offset. They dont stick out past the fenders and they look great. Also I am running the exact wheels you plan on getting.
