XD + Nitto TG. Feedback appreciated
 

I came across this site a week ago and have been on it daily - this is a great resource and I'm really impressed with the knowledge base. It's nice to find a forum that is actually helpful & respectful. (lots of hatred out there right now)

My truck is painfully stock right now and I'm getting ready to customize. I have a wheel/tire combo that I would like feedback on:

- XD Monster 20X9, +18mm offset, matte black
- Nitto Terra Grapplers, 275/55 R20

Obviously not too aggressive; I know they'll fit and I don't want to level. I'd love to do 22s but don't want to break the bank, I can get the above set up for $1600 out the door. I'm also planning on an exhaust, bumpers, de-chroming, sound system - so I don't want to blow my budget on only wheels/tires.

Let me know what you think.

BTW - I'm a former Chevy guy, but GM has gone soft and the F150 was actually an easy choice over a 1500. For my money, the owners trucks on this site are hands down the best looking trucks out there.

That's a great setup for the price. Welcome to Ford! I say go for it! I have had the Nitto TG's on last 2 F150's - love them....

The Nitto's are great :banana: youll love em

I think you'll want a wider tire. 305's would look more aggressive.

#1 i dont thank a 305 will fit , unless he levels it , which he said he wasnt gonna do.

#2 305 is taller , not wider



$1600 seems like a good deal to me , i used to run a seat of Terra Grapplers and i was very pleased with them :thumbsup:

if you dont mind me asking where are you getting a deal like that on rims and tires because i also have been looking at that same set up which is running atleast 2k so therefore probably only getting tires but if i could get for 1600 deffineitly feaseable

Just to clarify, a 305 is first and foremost wider than a 275. It may also be taller, depending on the second number in the size. In metric, the first number refers to width and the height comes from a ratio using the second number. In the English measurements, the first number is height and the second number is width.

^^^:thumbsup:

Welcome! good luck with your mods.

In metric tire sizes 305 refers to the width, not the height at all.

The 275/55-20 Nitto TG is 31.8"x11.1"
The 305/50-20 Nitto TG is 32.1"x12.2"

May I recommend a compromise, there is also a 285/55 and 285/50 Nitto TG. Both are in between those specs, in height and width.
