if i get 20's and and a 35 series tire, will my tires rub with a 3/5? cause it seems like 2/4 barely looks different from stock and a 3/5 looks really good and level but a friend told me they rubbed alot and he wish he got 18's but i really want dubz...its an ego thing...

If you keep the outside tire diameter the same there shouldn't be any rubbing. The stock tire is about 29" if you put 18's on with a 255/55/18 the outside diameter is 29"...you keep the same outside diamenter you keep the same fender lip clearance. do a search on here there is a handy tire size calculator out there to figure all this out.

It is all about your driving style. If you go slow and angle your approach to entrances you probably won't rub. You go 85 down the highway and hit this crazy whoop you will probably rub. I commute in SoCal everyday with my dakota. 62,000 miles and already replaced the front TOXIC shocks once. Warrenties kick butt. The front springs are not stiff enough for the heavy front half of the truck.
