Pic of my new tires/rims

Hey all,

I am not exactly new here, but none of you have met me. I have been reading a lot of your opinions and looking a pictures of your trucks (some nice rides in here). I recently went for some larger purchases for my 05 f150. Set of Pro-comp rims (not such a great pic of rims below but will post better ones) and new shoes (BFG AT/KO's 285/75/17). Did a daystar leveling kit as well. 1600 bucks for everything including alignment. Reading your posts helped me decide what I wanted to do. Thanks for all the imput.

Looks great! It's amazing what new wheels and bigger tires does for the look of these trucks.

Naw,

I just got these. I spend a lot of time at the desert and think that on this truck that a 17 in rim w/ a 33 in shoe is just about right. I don't think the 5.4L is powerful enough in the sand dunes, dirt, desert washes etc. to turn a 35 tire correctly, and a 20 in rim wrapped with a 33 in tire wouldn't be good in an offroad/desert application.

Nice truck. Need to have some better pics, which I'm sure will come later.It's nice to get different opinions to help make a decision on a large purchase. It makes you feel money is well spent. Congrats.

I love those tires. Gives a very nice aggressive look, but appears that they would still be fairly quite on the blacktop. Are they?

Excellent choice on your rims as well. Those are similar to what I would like to get for mine. They both look great on the truck.
