will a 20 x 10 wheel with a 35x12.50 tire look too small or look just right on a 05 F150 2WD lifted 9", 6 susp, and 3 body. Thanks for any feedback.

I'd vote too small - 37 would look better and you don't need most of that lift to clear a 35, a 6" will get you there.

35's look pretty good with a 6" lift 36 or 37's look better IMO if you can fit them. With 9" of lift I would at least have a 36 or 37" tire.

Geez, most of you forget he's a 2WD. 2WDs sit 2" lower than 4WD models so technically speaking a 6" suspension + 3" body on his 2WD would only be 1" bigger than a 4WD with a 6" suspension on 35s.

take a look at this truck. its a 4WD with 6" suspension + being 2" higher than a 2WD makes the truck 8"s, it has 20's and 35's. Now my truck which is a 2WD and has 6" suspension and 3" body makes it 9"s, only 1" higher than this 4x4. The 20's and 35's on this truck dont look small at all, so with me being 1" higher shouldnt make much of a difference if i run the same setup. tell me your thoughts on this stance / wheel and tire setup. is it that bad looking?

I personally don't like the thin side wall a 20" rim leaves with a 35" tire. It has a street look but then you're putting mud tires on it. If you want 20s, go with a bigger tire. Regardless, know your backspacing limitations on your rims.

i was thinking that as well, but people are saying that the 36's run small, and are the same size as a 35 if not a tad smaller. what would be the sense in that.

I agree, that thing looks great. I've seen some with the same setup that looks like chit but I really like that one.
