I just switched from the stock 235/70/16 Firestones to 265/75/16 Michelin LTX/AT last friday. Already 5 or 6 people have said things like, "looks like a REAL TRUCK now without those little tires." Even my mom noticed! Why does Ford put those tiny things on in the first place?

------------------
2000 XL 4.6 5spd 2WD reg-cab long-box 3.55 LS 265/75/16 Chestnut (not 2-tone) Raven-Cap (and a '66 GTO with a '73 455, both combined cost less than a Lightning )

 

Cheap......smaller tires, less rubber, more profit for Ford.

------------------
1997 F-150 Lariat
Ext Cab Short Box
4x4 Off Road Package
3.55 Gears
285/75 R16 Kelly Springfield Trailcutter RTs



My 2 cents worth

If you're gonna stroke it, POWERSTROKE IT!!!
