I've told you in other threads Lifted that's a sweet set up you got.
And I've said in other posts that I would go 18" with more rubber if I had it to go over again.
In both cases my opinion doesn't really matter.
If a truck looks good-it just looks good.

Look at these rims and tires:

I agree if a truck looks good and is put together well it is what it is.

And i am not saying 20's look bad on all truck either but it has to be done right.

I just do not like the whole big wheel craze because it does make finding a wheel that is smaller for those of us who choose to go that route very difficult.

Point taken.
But the smaller vintage styles are still out there--they're the ones that
started custom wheels for cryin' out loud.
I think there are overall just more styles to choose from these days and some of the new companies don't think along those lines--dumb *** marketing guy with suit gets job for custom wheels and concentrates on the latest craze--blame him. Hey they should put your truck in the new HULK movie?

I have 20x9 rims with 33/13.50 ATZ's and if I had to do over I'd go with an 18 inch rim....Or lift the truck higher and throw 38's on the 20 inch rims.

I currently have 20" Rims with 305/55 = 33"x12.5" tires. I drive a 05' FTX but i like the look of the 20's with 33's

Question

Nice looking trucks in here, but I've got a question for you guys running 20s and lo-pro rubber.

How do they work when ya air down for rock and sand crawling? Now, I'm not calling anyone's truck here the dreaded mall-crawler name. I'm just curious how well those lo-profiles work offroad.

Love that Effie in lazarus' post!

Nice looking truck even with those wheels and tires but it would look even better with either more tire or less wheel.
