Great looking truck Rotti.

what size and brand of tires did you guys went with ? 37s or 35s?

I went with 295/55/R20 Nitto Trail Grapplers. Ordered the wheels with the wider offset in the rear so no spacer is needed.

It's about 33".

Direct bolt on with a simulated larger bolt pattern. ... now that would be the ticket! Direct bolt on looks terrible imo.

22`s? They look Ghetto, rides like $hit, throws your speedo way off, essentially increases your rear end ratio, pay thru the nose for tires. On the plus side you`d be a big hit with the brothers hanging out on the corners downtown Chicago or any large city but then again it probably increases your theft risk but 50%

You pretty much nailed it. I actually like the looks but when I put them on, the truck lost towing power because it basically changed the gearing. Which you can change to compensate, but if you have a 4x4 now you're changing two sets of gears, breaking and stopping power went way down, you can change that by changing the brakes, and the list goes on and on. The wheels are much heavier than stock and will wear out wheel and suspension components prematurely. You'll be dumping a ton of cash into the truck to fix the negatives of having the looks of the wheels. Not worth it, and they make the truck ride like crap. If you've ever experienced the Ford death wobble, it amplifies that. If you want to run a set of wheels that size, buy the truck they were made for....

Glad I went with the direct bolt on 20's.

Funny thing is.........if you go to a big poker run all the ballers have 22's, 24's, 24.5's on their F650's/duallys/whatever.
