Feeling pretty good about my decision to go with 20” wheels.

This is great. I’m going between Blizzak LTs and Hakkapellitta LT3s. Searched the forums and forums from other vehicles… does anyone have any thoughts about this direct comparison?

Which rides better in snow? Any available 21” winter tire, Santa Claus, or the Easter Bunny?

Thanks, very nice job putting this together. Any chances of adding UTQG treadwear rating?

I've created a list of every compatible tire according to, and sold by, Discount Tire. Effectively, this eliminates anything with a load index of 113 or lower.

It's split into three sheets—one for each wheel diameter. There are some filter views (Data > Filter views) to filter by type, or you can create your own temporary filter view.

I opened the 21” tab hoping to see more than one row. I was disappointed…

I am getting the Nokian but I don’t think there is a big difference between the 2. I had the Blizzak for 10 years (before the Rivian), very good tires.

It would be cool if you had a column on the 20" sheet that let people know the circumference difference between 21" and 22" options. For example, someone with 21"s switching to 20"s will not need to reprogram anything if they use 275/60R20 tires since it's the same circumference.

I have the 21" wheels and I think when they wear out if they still only have a single tire I'll be buying a set of 20". I wonder how many people will do the same. Especially with the pricing of the tires if you plan on keeping the vehicle for a while the price can quickly add up.

Seems like there are hardly any adjacent sizes for the 21" wheel that equate to the same 32.9" diameter.

But if you go down an inch (32" total diameter; 275/50 R21) then we have more choices. Wonder if the possible reduction in weight (roughly 10lbs per tire) would offset the designed eco advantages of the OE tire?

I love the Michelin Defender LTX as I have them on my Ram Limited. Less costly, quiet, great grip in the rain (I am a Floridian), and slightly more aggressive than the OE tire.

When I was on the fence about getting the 21's versus 20's, the selection of choices was the deciding factor.
This is the way.....
