Toyo makes some Mud Terrain 38/15.50/20R tires if your looking for a sweet 38" tire. That 12" Rize lift with 38" tires would look pretty mean. I think I'll stick to 8" with 37" tires for my truck. Don't know if I have the funds for a 12" lift haha.

Yeah I was just checking out the Toyo's.. they are nice tires. I wish Nitto still made a 38x15.50r20 in the mud grappler.. oo well. Yeah that would be a mean setup if i had the money haha. I think if we all had that kind of money to play around with that we would all be riding on 12" rize setup with 40" tires and running over the tops of cars ha

Also if im running 38's or 39's what would be a good header and dual exhaust setup?... Ill be getting the volant air intake and edge programmer to help get those wheels moving.

you NEED to regear! I got mine done front and rear 4.88's for 1050.

Toyo also makes a 38x13.50R20 which I'll be getting when these tires wear out or unless I can find someone to buy my current tires. The extra width on the 15.50s really don't help out things on the wear and tear side of things. The extra width will probally make ball joints and wheel bearings wear out that much faster.

I'm with etrevino103186, you need to regear! But to answer your question about exhaust. Headers are a pain and the gains are small unless your supercharged. . unless you are going to do them yourself and get the Ford Racing headers, I wouldn't do it personally. I'm running a true dual set-up with Flowmaster 40s and I love my set-up!

I hope this helps!

JMO i wouldnt do that 12 inch lift with 38's or a 8 inch with 3 inch body lift or anything on 38's. when i saw pictures of Rize's show F-=150 with the 12 inch and 4 link rear with king coilovers all around it was on 38's and looked WEIRd

originally it was on some 40's and some custom made 3 piece 22's but when Rize sold it to a guy on the Rize team he took them off and put 38's on it....he was selling it not to long ago for about 50 grand....

Yeah if the 15.50s are going to wear stuff out quick then screw that idea. I saw that Super Swamper makes a 38x13.50r20 tire.. Would yall recommend super swampers?

I plan on regearing... on top of that I wanted to do exhaust and headers but if headers are such a problem then throw that idea out too ha. Ive been thinking about running the true dual flowmaster 40's. I think ill end up going with that pretty quickly along with the Volant Cool Air Intake Sytstem.

Just my suggestion, scrap the Volant. Get the S&B and a custom tune from Jusnes. Headers arn't a big problem unless you have to pay for them to be installed, you'll have to pay about 8 hours on labor to get them installed. Which Super Swamper are we talking about? Most Interco tires don't last too long so I say go with the Toyos since they last forever, are quiet, and perform great! What size gears did you plan on going with?

Alright then.. Where can I find that intake setup? Yeah the problem is I will be paying for labor so I will just wait on that for now. TrXus Mt.. And sorry I ment 38.5x14.50r20. Yeah I like the toyos but I want a rugged looking tire that still can preform well. I was going to go with 4.88's. Is that good or no?

The tire set-up is all up to you, do whatever is going to make you happy. Go to Jusnes.com and you'll be able to find it. The 4.88s will be perfect, I'm going with them as well.

JBA looks like they make good exhaust systems for an F150. I'd go with their headers and system. Flowmaster 40s sound really good too. Personally I think I am going to stick with my Stock Harley System. I had a bad experience with the exhaust system on my last truck.

Alright thanks for all the info guys! And thump I think you have an answer to every question possible . As for headers I think I will hold off for now. I need to get exhaust and gears taken care of first.

But one last question... With that super swamper setup..38.5x14.50r20 it said you should run a 20x12 inch rim.... Who makes a rim that big?

Question, have you contacted ALL OUT OFF ROAD? www.http://alloutoffroad.com/

Click here for their Ford Gallery: http://alloutoffroad.com/ford.htm

If you are drivng 5 hours to Mcallen from Plano why not make a stop in Houston? Give them a call at 281-341-9494 ask for Gino. These guys are great source of knowledge and are extremely helpful, check out their gallerys, some of the best lifted trucks in my neck of the woods.

Here are some pics of Ginos truck, his truck was the inspiration for me to get lifted. These Pics were taken about 2 years ago so i am not sure what he has done different or if he still owns this truck, but i have seen some sweet trucks parked in front lately when i drive by...

These pics show him on 38s:
