Tuff and Tonka, what do you think of my dads pick, the rims right below? I mean he had a point when he told me I could buy two 18" for the price of (1) 20" chrome rim. And Tuff I don't think I've seen to many people with the this kind of rim.

There different so thats a big + IMO and look pretty nice, if that price suits your budget and you REALLY like them get them. If your not 100% sure and are just getting them to save money, dont do it save your $$ and get what you really want. If you do get them, make sure those wheels are tucked under the wells because IMO stock tires with wheels that pop out looks like crap, you would be better of staying with what you have now.

How would I know if they're going to be tucked in or not?

Look out for those diamo's i considered them, but then saw them in person and they are terrible in person, just my opinion though. Have you checked out incubus wheels? I have the brawns and love them. . . http://www.incubusalloys.com/rwd.htm

Man you are one of the most undecided people I have ever come across.. You say you wanna get a lift but your gonna buy 33's? That "old mans truck" comment really messed you up J/K

Just get the lift already with some 35's

I think I'm going to set my truck on fire and ask for my Focus back. Never did I once want to mod a thing of that little car. Now I want rims and tires then I want a lift, but I have to look at backspacing and offset. POS TRUCK...wheres my lifter fluid.

WHEEL AND TIRES THEN A LIFT KIT NOTHING CONFUSING ABOUT THAT. MY MODS COME ONE AT A TIME, I DONT HAVE THE CASH TO DROP FOR ALL OF THESE THINGS AT ONCE.

I don't think I never told you but my old man picked out my truck before I ever saw it.

Yeah I thought you'd all have fun with that. Don't get me wrong I went over to the dealership and as soon as I saw the truck I fell in love with it. It's just all the little BS about offset and backspacing is really pissing me off take a look at this thread i just posted. https://www.f150online.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=306894

I guess I'm just trying to help you out so you dont get 33's within the next few months then lift it and end up regretting that you didn't go bigger and buy new tires.

I think its easier to do it all at once remember there's no rush.
