Desert Dawg

Hey Desert Dawg, I am a new owner of a 2011 white FX4, screw cab, long bed, bone stock haha. I have always liked your taste in trucks and styling. You seem to have a good eye for proper colors in proper spots. I saw you explaining how you did you truck and you were very good at color balancing. With that said, what advice do you have for me while I debate on wheels for my truck? I will soon have a 6in lift and 35" mickey T's. I am leaning towards black wheels as chrome does not look good on white trucks (at least not in my opinion). If you have any advice you willing to give, it would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers!

Hey hows it going, I was wondering what size bed you have on your 09? Also what size tires were the BFGs in your pictures?

Thanks,
Jeff

Paul,
Thank you for the response. I was hoping you werent going to tell me that your current platinum wheel and tire combo had rubbing. I do not feel comfortable doing any trimming myself mainly because I wouldnt even know where to start lol. I like your combo on your old eco XLT and understand what you mean about the debris. You said you had no rubbing with this setup with I like to hear, and I also like that very aggressive stance. My 2012 white 5.0 xlt is the same as yours was, it has the chrome grill and bumpers. I wanted to ask your professional opinion on this setup:
2.5 BDS w/ one inch rear block added
20 x 9 Fuel octances +14 offset (I wasnt sure about the black with the chrome bumpers and grill, what do you think?)
305/55r20 NITTO TRAILS
and to help the debris some (even though i hate even driving on a gravel road haha) some EGR matte black OEM street flares, says they cover 1.5 inches
Do you think that would turn out as clean and sharp as all your trucks lol?

Your opinion is desperatly wanted!

Thanks a lot!

I had a couple questions and you seem to be the right man to ask, so here it goes...
I have a white 2012 f150 5.0 I am looking to level it, and add a nice set of wheels and tires.

I saw you had the bds level on your candy red platinum, is that the 2.5 level with or w/o the rear block?
I am going to get 20 x 9 wheels and I really like the 295 60 r20 tires you have on the platinum...do they rub at all? How far do they stick out past the fender?
Your wheels are an 18 offset....do you think I could run 20 x 9 fuel octanes with +14 offset and 295 60 nitto trials without any problems or should I stick with the +18?

All your trucks are absolutely gorgeous btw, nice work!

How bad did the mpg drop off with that set up of wheels and tires with the 3:55 gear? And of course nice ride.

sweet can't wait to see updated pictures!

Thanks slowly its getting to how we talked about haha! it looks like you have gotten a new truck how do you like it?

Paul thanks for the TOTM vote i really appreciate it!
