I didn't want to go with 22's or 24's I think the 20's have a good balance of looks, and comfortable riding that would be ideal.

I have the 2005 Ford STX Supercab, and I would like it to have a rim with a chromed deep lip, but want the rim face to be flat and not curved like what everybody else has. I also want the tire to hang over the rim edge a bit, so that it will protect the rim edge, and give it a wider stance, but still have an aggressive look.

Can anyone recommend a rim manufacturer and tire brand that will probably fit this profile? I have the factory 17" tire on, and the tire is 10" wide.

 

I used to think the same thing. However, after looking at all the factory trucks and SUV's coming from the factory with 20's and 22's, I decided to go with 22's on my Expy. I am glad I did because I would have regretting going with 20's because of the physical size of the Expy. I believe the same would be true with your Supercab. It's a big truck and makes factory 17's look tiny.

 

Could you post some picks of your rims on your Expedition? I'm trying to get an idea if that would work for me?

 

Sure. My Expy and your truck have the same 6x135mm bolt pattern, so you would use the same wheel. My wheels are Eagle Alloy model 026. They are 22x9.5's with 6.7 inches of backspacing.

 

Is you STX a 2wd or 4wd? I agree that 22s look awesome on these trucks and I think they're the perfect size for 2wd. However, I like 20s on a 4wd so you get a little more tire.

BTW Wandell, the Expy looks great.

 

Sweet, looks great. That's the look I like. Thanks.

 

20 x 8 1/2 eagle 114 w/nitto tarra grapplers305/55/20 (33"s)

Did you modify the suspension, if not do you get any tire rubbing in the wheel wells at all? I was thinking about 22 x 10's. Thanks.

Wandell - how do you like the Falken STZ04's??? I have had 3 sets of the STZ01's on my truck and was considering changing to those. How is the ride, noise, etc.????
