    Any concerns switching from 275/55R20 to 275/65R18 on stock 2wd 2015 Tundra?

    Nope. Actually, you could probably get away with a 275/70/18 (33") on the stock wheels with no lift/level (on the front) as well. I went from 20's down to 18's and couldn't be happier. I also did a level as well and that has just rounded the look out.

    Thanks! I was thinking 70 but heard there might be some rubbing. Don't mind taking the front mud flap off but wouldn't want to modify anything else.

    I got rid of the stock 20" wheels and went with the TRD OR wheels with 275/70/18 tires - no issues/rubbing at all with stock suspension. I upgraded the front shocks and leveled it about a month later - and then started rubbing the skid plate a little. I just trimmed the skid and all better.

    Thank you! No plans to level so maybe I will go 70 then. Would like the look a little bit better

    I went from 20's to 18's because tires were about 20% cheaper on the 18's. Difference in tire cost paid for my 18's and I save money on each future set of tires.
