2008 20" wheels swap?

I am thinking of dumping my lift and tires (285 75 16). My current wheels have off set. Thinking of a newer stock 20" stock rims like from an 08. 275 60 20. The 20's would be just as tall as my 285 75 16 but 2" thinner. I am not sure if that rim with the inset change would fit a stock suspension with a level kit.
Anyone have these rims?

My 2006 has those rims with no leveling kit and fit great.

How is the ride with the shorter sidewalls?
I just don't like my Bounce in the truck right now.

Not going to fit on your truck without 2" spacers

05+ is no problem. 99-03 needs spacers to fit 05+ rims

The track width changed for the 2005+ trucks.
