I'm looking to get some new wheels and tires for my truck in the next month or two. I'm hoping you guys can help and tire size and wheel spec questions.

I have an 08 2wd that has a 2' level in the front and 3' blocks in the rear. I think eventually I will add a 6' lift, but that will be later on. Right now I want to know what should fit now with little to no trimming.

I'm thinking about going with either 20' or 22' KMC Brodie wheels like the ones in this thread. https://www.f150online.com/forums/wh...5-kmc-22s.html

What specs should I be looking for in the wheel as far as backspacing, etc.?

What size tires would you go with? Looking for an AT and not a mud tire.

Please keep in mind I want to go with a wheel and tire that will transition into the lift in the future.

Would something like this fit and is this a good deal?

Pics of your setups would be awesome as well!

Thanks for your help in advance!

 

I have decided after a ton of research that I will be going with a 305/55/20 size tire on a 20' wheel. Now just have to decided on Nitto or BFG and AT or Mud.

What sort of backspacing or offset will I need to best accommodate this tire? Remember I am a leveled 2wd.

Thanks.

 

305x55/20 = 33.2x12"
If you are looking to run 6" in the future I wouls get 5" bs or 4.5" bs. almost all of the kits require 5" bs on rims and Skyjacker requires 4.5"bs.
I have the Nitto Trail Graps and love them. Only a few hundred miles on them right now so cant comment on wear. An aggressive all terrian is what I got. was also looking at the mud terrians but they wear so much faster and make so much more noise. But the MT look super mean.

 

So if I got the 305s and a wheel with 5" of backspacing, I should be fine sitting how I do now? Does anybody disagree with that?

I am currently running the stock wheels with 285/65/18 Toyo Ats.

 

I'd go with a 9 inch wide wheel with 5 inches of backspacing.
