05 FX4 nonlifted

I've got an 05 FX4 with the OEM 18s. I wanted to go to a bigger rim, wider wheels, but keep the same height tire, and not lift the truck. Thinking about going to some 20s, wanted to know if there were any a/t tires that would fit the bill...?? I like the stock look of the rims, just wanted something a little bigger, any suggestions on rims too?

thanks in advance!

Your best choices will be a 305/50-20 (32x12.50) or 305/55-20 (33x12.50) tire.

click on the camera icon by my description and you will see my truck on 20's. tire size was 305/50/20. they fit well and never had any problem with them. It will definitely make the truck look different and better.

Very nice looking truck. If you don't mind me asking... what did you pay for your tires and wheels? I've posted a couple posts regarding my brother in-law is coming back from Iraq soon and he has a 8K budget to make some upgrades to his 08 F150 King Ranch 4x4. He hasn't even seen his truck yet. I'm flying back to Eden NC to help him make the upgrades. I'm not sure if he's going to go with 33" or 35" tires. What wheels are those on your turck? Do you have the front leveling kit?

Here is my 04 Lariat...

There are a ton of options, some wheel and tire sites have interactive wheel aplications that give you an idea of what the wheels will look like on your truck. I think tirerack.com has one, Discounttiredirect.com has one. I think wheelrack.com has one too. Discounts it pretty good.
