    i think you will be happy with them. I mean you are talking an inch. You wont notice it that much and they will look big compared to the stockers you have that are only 10 inches wide. I only have a 33 and i think they look huge in person. If you are going to get the generals, it looks like 305.50 is the only choice you have anyway. Have you looked at the Cooper LTZ? They have the same size for 760 shipped

    No problem at all..I like trying to answer questions, i just dont want a person to do something i suggest then be ticked because it didnt work just as perfect as they thought it was supposed to. So anyway they both cost about the same im sure. So i guess it just comes down to which one you want. Everyone runs them with not really too many problems, so basically you have to decide which will make your truck sit level. Id go measure your fender heights and see what you need...or go with the bigger one and if you want to add a leaf or block then go that route. If you are thinking bigger then go bigger because as the lift kit guys always say you will wish you would have later. If it were me go measure your fenders

    Id say you can do a 33 with the backspacing you told me earlier, but i dont think it can be 12.5 wide without rubbing on your control arms. Your truck being a 2wd is making it hard for me because im not sure on the specs of 2wd's. Before you buy id check this stuff over with Wandell in the wheels section..Just post WANDELL NEED YOUR HELP!!! haha. Give the specs of your wheels and what you are wanting to do. I know him and a few others have this down to a science and they usually are right on. i just dont want to tell you wrong. I know you can do the 305 because ive seen plenty of 2wd with that already, but for future growth im not positive on how big you could go. So as far as the leveling kit go you might ask him that too... Hopefully this helps.

    I think you are smart for thinking that. And thanks for the compliment, yours will look pretty sweet when you get the black and chrome on. With the +18 im pretty sure as long as you stay around a 32inch give or take a half inch or so tire and dont go any wider then 12inches you can do whatever you want

    Well. He doesnt have 305/55R20 AT2, they don't exist lol. General makes one size in 20s and that's 305/50R20. But I like the way they look!! I think the wheels have 6.00 backspacing and +18 offset.

    http://www.f150online.com/forums/200...ds-w-pics.html This would be the same as your 2wd since he lowered the back. But the stock wheels i think are 6 or 6.5 inches of backspaciing, so as long as you did something close to that...Probably little to no trimming. He actually has the AT2's also so you can get a look at them.. I really like the look of the 305 they give a wide stance

    Honestly unless you just want to spend the extra dough on the MT's or offroad alot, that would be the only reason for those. There are plenty of AT tires that are aggressive and you get alot more wear out of them. My TG's are alot more aggressive then i expected and the MT ATZ's are also. I think a 305 or maybe even 285 will make you plenty happy and you will have alot less problems trying to make them fit. I had pretty good luck with Rimzone on ebay with my wheels, but im not sure what they have in AR wheels. Good luck and make sure to post some pics when you are finished. There are plenty of guys on here with some pics of already leveled 2wd's on 33's. On your leveling kit id really try to stay around a 2inch.. I have a 3 and it makes me cringe everytime i look under the truck! OH WELL.. 42K and no problems yet.

    Sounds like a good plan. I really like the cooper STT, of course you wont get the mileage out of them you would an allterrain.. I had them on my black fx4 i have it in my gallery. Just make sure you dont go too far on the offset and i think you will be fine. Be prepared to do some trimming on the plastic fender wells. I had 18X8.5 BOSS 304's on it and 35-12.50's and they were really close to the rubbing the knuckles, but no rubbing anywhere else, they were just really wide. What kinda price have you found so far on them?

    I think those look pretty cool. Theyd look good on your truck. Are they American Racing? What size rim are you thinking about going with.
