I just bought a 2010 FX2 in Tuxedo Black and wanted to get some of your opinions on wheels. Is it taboo to put off road tire and wheels on a 2 wheel drive truck??

I was looking at the 23" Saleen wheels, but this is a work truck I drive all over the place and job sites and don't want to be over stated? Maybe I should just get rid of the FX2 decal and go off road...what do you guys think? I have tough skin so let me have your honest opinion.

 

Or you could trade it in and get a REAL truck! Just kidding. I have seen lots of FX2s with bigger tires. It will be helpful to post a pic or 2 of your truck so you can get some good wheels opinions. Do you plan on leveling it?

 

Nothing wrong at all with a fx2 goin offroad. Hell, I would buy a fx2 just for the interior .

However, I think the 23" saleens would be dead sexy, and I would have to steal it from you.

 

Man I know, I really thougt hard about getting the FX4 but I drive all over town doing sales and project managment so the better gas mileage won over the two to three times a year I go hunting. If I go off road I would level it...

 

If you go with the saleens your tire choices are going to be limited. I am not sure anyone makes an AT in a 23 inch?

 

I talked to a buddy and he can get me some for $1100....not what I was looking to pay but if I go with some Toyo Open Country I would be paying as much if not more for what I want.

 

I'd like to see some open country on saleens. It would probably look good!

 

If I go with the open country I would put those on 20" XD Series Mosters...

 

i have the 20" monsters on my fx4.. dont get them they are ugly

 

just kiddin'

But really, take some pictures.

 

I lifted my FX2 sport. Took the decals off and blacked it out. Got the 20" XD Monsters 778 (Black) with Procomp Xtreme AT's. Its raining now but ill take some pictures later.

 

I have a 2010 FX2 in black as well. I plan to bring the either lower the back end or get airbags just in the rear incase i have a load I can always keep it level. But I think I will go 20's or 22's with terra grapplers. I do see some dirt and gravel so it would be nice to have a tire that will work well. So i think an AT would work well on an FX2.

 

How much did you lift and can I get away with just a 2" level if I go 20" monsters with 33" Open Countrys?

 

Yea you can get 33" with a 2" level. You can get 35" I believe. Its just you gotta watch on your backspacing and tire width.

 

Why would you lower the back and put an AT tire? ? ?
