Default 06' F-250 4X4 Tire & Wheel Upgrade

Just wondering what you guys might recommend?

I have stock 17's now. Not looking to jackup the truck or even "level" it. Just looking for a little bling. Want a tire that is going to last a long time like the stock ones and rims that won't turn to crap if the get just a little mud on them & I don't want to have to polish aluminum either.

Reccomendations and pictures of vehicles would be helpful!

I have the 22" wheels with a 1 1/2 spacer in the front. They are KMC Backseats

I got the FX4 option for 20"wheels and Scorpion tires. They get good reviews for all functions. Check reviews on http://f150online.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=29

I saw that link last night, and they have some nice rims.

Also check out www.wheelpros.com

I have Helo Maxx8 Wheels on my 3/4 ton. They look sharp and are quite heavy duty. Gotta be careful with aftermarket wheels when going HD and towing. Ask Phantom Chaos. He cracked one while towing once.

Good choice, they look killer. KMC makes an awesome wheel, had a set of 18s on an s10 a few years back

Welladjusted:

They look real nice. What's a set-up like that go for? Would you have to use a spacer with 20's?

They costs about $3500-4000. If you go with less tire you wouldn't need a spacer but I love the look. But now it's time to sell. On to the next project.

I put 20 inch rims and 33 inch Mickey Thompson tires on mine. They don't rub. I may try and put 35's on next time, but I am sure that will at the minimum require a leveling kit. here are some pics
