Cant decide on 20s or 22s!

285/50's will give you a little more sidewall and will look pretty good with just a 2" rear drop; however, you can still run them with up to a 2/4 drop you it does leave you a little room for more drop in the future. They will slow you down a little though; I'd recommend 4.10 gears to compensate for the height difference over factory. Since you're running 265/75 16's now the difference wouldn't be as noticeable but 20's still have a geater rotational mass than the stock 16's even if the weight is the same or even lighter in my case. Here's an old pic of mine with a 2.5" rear drop with Stingray III's and 285/50's to get an idea:

Be care full with the wheel offset, I've got a 2/4 drop on my truck running the 285/50/20's on a 20x9 wheel. I had to take off the fender flares because they were rubbing when I hit bumps
