Need Help on wheels

Should I keep my oem wheels or buy aftermarket wheels for my truck? If I keep them what size tires should I buy?

IMO, aftermarket is the way to go.

Custom wheels always look better. As for size, post more info about your truck ( 4x4? cab? height level? ) and upload your photos onto here and link them from there to the forums.

Need help on wheels

I hope link to picture of my truck open this time. 2007 F150 XLT Super Cab FX2. 265x60x18 stock wheel and tires. Keep wheels and replace tires with larger size (What size U suggest) or purchase a new set of wheel and tires. If I purchase a new set what would look best and should I stay with 18" or go with 20".

Truck Pictures (Need new wheels)

Sorry it took so long on these pictures. As stated 2007 F150 XLT 4.6 Supercab FX2. 265 x 60 x18. Looking for 20" rims with larger tires without leveling the front end of my truck. There's a lot of space in the tire well, by keeping the 18" and putting a larger tire on, would that look better than the 20" set up?

I personally like 18" with a 65 sidewall on a leveled truck. Unless your into the street look bigger wheels with thin tires looks ok.

My preference are either to purchase or stay with 18" oem wheels. Maybe someone can suggested brand of wheels and tires, and what sizes tire to purchase.
