Anyone with low profile tires on daily driver???
 
I'm close to have enough dough to get a set of wheels and tires but now I've started to debate about the tires size. The two contenders are 275/45/20 or 275/35/20. I've seen a lot of trucks on the street with the 45 series but only show trucks with the 35 series. Anyone out there that has "rubber bands" on his (hers) daily drive??? Ride too rough?? Any wheel damage?? Please share your thoughts. https://www.f150online.com/f150board/confused.gif

Us Lightning guys ride on 45's... mine is my daily driver and its alright. I'm told that the 35's are not too bad, but I don't know how your shocks are...might want to change them.

The problem with a 35 series tire is that it gives very little protection to the rim and if you are used to the ruggedness of a truck's normal tires, you might damage the sidewall and/or the wheelrim in a seemingly innocent manuever.
