    Hey all! I'm new to the Tundra community and am looking for advice. I have been scouring and lurking this forum to find some answers, but I am having a massive amount of issues, so here it goes.

    I have a 2020 Tundra Limited that is currently leveled, however, I have decided to lower it. I have all the necessary parts (2/4 SOS Performance drop kit, shortened rear Bilstein shocks, rear sway bar with shortened hardware) but I am having a lot of trouble finding a wheel and tire size that will fit the truck with as little rubbing as possible. Tom at SOS performance recommended I run a 295/50r20 with 20x9 wheels, which I can't seem to visualize or find examples of anywhere. On top of that, I'm looking to make my wheels essentially flush with the fender line of the truck, giving it a cleaner appearance, but I am having a hard time understanding what wheel offset would help me get this desired effect.

    As I said, I am new to Tundras so I apologize if some of these things are easily answered questions. I decided to post here because I figure ya'll would be able to point me in the right direction. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks!

    Welcome from Oregon.
    Not that many lowered Tundras compared to lifted out there. I know there are/were a couple members that have done the honey d wide body fenders and some that have lowered and done the fenders. I just tried to search but for some reason couldn’t find them. I’ll have to try again later and maybe have better luck. I have thought about lowering mine every once in a while too.

    They told me the same size tire, and I can only find one tire for sale that fits that size...
