Can't tell, looks the same in the picture you posted.

Surfratsteve - Those are perfect. Do you gave closer pics of the tread. Also, is the tire size actually P275/55R20?

Those do not look any different than the stock tires based on the pictures you posted.

No rubbing at all and the Duelers had good ratings so I thought I'd stick with them. The P275's do have a more aggressive tread pattern which is better suited to the truck in my opinion. I guess you have to see it in person but it really does look better than the OEM width. If anyone's in San Diego I would be happy to show it!

you should not be putting 275 tires on these rims unless the tire specs call for 7 inch wide rim. the limited rims are only 7 inchs wide...

Looks good Steve! I think those are the H/L Alenza's, correct? They're pretty highly rated in Tirerack.
I think the lighting in the pics is a bit deceiving - you can tell in the close-up pic how the extra width fills up the wheel well a bit better.
As for the 7 vs. 7.5" wide wheel, you're right at the cusp, so as long as you keep them properly inflated (34-35 psi) and don't drive the truck like you stole it, you should be fine.
Enjoy!

Just curious... how much were they and were you able to trade in the OEM tires?

They were $198 ea plus installation. I had to buy another set the dealer would not swap them (the original ones used at that point anyhow due to the factory test drive, etc.). I actually had the new ones put on at Discount Tire.

i wouldnt trust the dealer or tire installer fyi. go to the manufacturer website and give them a call and see what they say. better yet, go to tirerack.com and get their opinion..

Bridgestone Dueler A/T RH-S
here are the specs for tire you chose. the MIN rim width is 7.5 inches for this tire. So you are squeezing a larger tire onto a smaller rim, which is unsafe. not going to get into a spat here, but too many people here have done what you have done and it could potentially lead to a serious accident.

Originals were P245/60R 20 Bridgestone Duelers. Tracking seems fine I swapped the tires immediately so I don't have a comparison to the originals however.
