Thumbs up Lift and Wheels ordered. Need help picking tires!

Hey guys. I'm getting the Rancho 4" Lift installed on my Red 2009 FX4 Supercrew next week. Here are the wheels that I ordered today. http://www.bmfwheels.com/images_whee...SOTA-6-blk.jpg
They are 20x10. -19 offset with 4.75 backspacing. I would like some opinions on what tires to get. I have it narrowed down two. Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs in a 305/55/20, or the Toyo MT in 33x12.50x20. I was leaning to the Duratracs because it seems like everyone has the Toyo's. What do you all think? What do you think would look better out of these two? I would like to get the tires ordered within the next couple of days so I can get them installed next week.

Much difference in price? The Toyo's have a great reputation, but like you said everyone has em. The new Duratracs seem pretty good for a Goodyear Tire, and people that have them seem to like em. But if you are concerned mostly with looks....I like the Toyo.

You have to do a 35 if you are lifting....33's too small!!

I am getting my Rancho 4-inch lift installed this week, and agree with the others that suggested the Toyo MT 35s (I also think the 33s will look too small, and on a 10-inch wide rim you are really going for the squat look). I decided on 35-inch BFG KM2s though as I really like the looks and performance over that of the Toyos, but you can't go wrong with either and the Toyos will look great on those BMF wheels. I decided on 18x9 wheels rather than the 20x9 wheels for the 4-inch lift because 18 inch size tires in 35s are just slightly less taller and narrower (not much but enough so I don't have to do any significant trimming) so will be curious how your 20x10s will fit. I didn't want a 6-inch lift for a number of reasons, but if I did have one then I would go with the 35s on 20x9 or 20x10 wheels. Good luck!
