whats up guys just got these installed today there 18x9 XD monsters with a plus 18 offset on stock tires for now..i will be getting some 275/70/18 nitto terra grapplers for Christmas still trying to decide on if i should do a leveling kit or not let me know what you guys think

 

Definitely do the leveling kit - looks goofy with the front end so much lower.

 

Looks good. Definately needs a leveling kit though.

 

thanks guys posted some better pics

also have some white emblem overlays on the way from patriot decals

 

Like they said, looks good and a leveling kit would be in order.

 

thanks yea im gonna be ordering a 1 1/2" AS leveling kit tomorrow

 

level no doubt !!!!!

 

I think the truck looks good both ways.

 

Just me but you should just do an upgrade for the Super Duty and forget the level idea. J/K
Truck looks great though but definitely get the leveling kit. Oh those rims

 

lol thats funny im actully coming from a 2009 f350 2wd traded her in for this beast lol im never gonna need that much towing capcity lol this truck is perfect for me

 

I know a guy that did almost the same thing. He had an 08 F450 diesel dually 4x4 that he traded in for a 2010 STX. He originally wanted a Raptor simply for the fact that they "look cool". lol Then he realized it probably wouldn't have been able to tow his work trailer. He says the STX is much better on gas, lol, he used to spend $150 a week in gas with his 450.

 

My 2010 STX gets 16.?? MPG. mxrider38 has a 2010 Raptor, that gets 13.?? MPG. Really not all that much difference.

 

^^ I was referring to the difference between the F450 and his STX. 3mpg is still a big difference, especially if you drive a lot of miles.

 

I was just stating the difference between a Raptor and an STX. Im sure the 450 was a total hog. My old C1500 got 8 MPG. I am Super happy with my 16 MPG.

Its all good my brother!!

 

Bringing up the C1500 huh. My old K2500 with the 350 got 12 mpg on a good day, I'll take my 16-17 all day long. Just to add, our 95 C3500HD dump truck with the 454 at work gets 6mpg whether you're towing a machine or completely empty, let me tell you it sucks getting gas for that thing all the time since I'm the only driver for it and it only has an 18 gallon tank.
