Based on my past experience with the locked trans, I think that it might be a good idea to get stock diameter, or as close as possible, for a 2020. Not a very common diameter in DRs, but Nitto does make the 555R2 in 275/35-20, which was the stock rear size on my SS for example. Of course, only testing and logging would tell what the sizes actually do to the shifting.
I was thinking of a 26.7 to a 27.0 inch tall tire. The OE diameter is 27.6 to 27.7, I do not think those diameters would bother anything and give me a little gear advantage . The 2.77 rear would be nice if it was a 2.85 ratio.
