Welcome to the Forum Mikey. :wave:
Just buy them in the same size that you have now and you're good to go.

Okay, I think I see the problem. I believe you have 255/50R20 tires now and the All Terrain doesn't come in that size. Actually, non of the sizes they show on Tire Rack in the 20" are suitable for your vehicle. They all exceed the maximum diameter of 3% by quite a margin.
A 265/60R18 has a difference of only 1.6% and would be okay. You would have to get 18" wheels/rims. No lift needed.
Here is one in 20" but not BFG. Does anyone have Any Pics of A/T tires on 20 or 22 wheels?
And there is this thread; All Terrain / Off Road Tires

I have a 20” stock rim with low profile tires. Looking 2 put on an all terrain tire with rims that would fit in the wheel well. B/c it’s a sport, low suspension.
