I have a new 2016 XLT Lariat with 20 inch Michelin tires 275/65-20 /rims.
I would like a beefier looking tire that will fit the stock rim, any input on sizes or pics would be awesome.

Also, could the 2016 benefit form a 2 inch lift in the front?

I tow a 30 ft toyhauler ( tow behind )( I plan on a 5th wheel later this year ) I am going to install the Airlift 5000 bags and remote compressor next week.

I am considering replacing stock shocks with Blistein 5100's.
I would like to keep stock height, other than possibly the 2 in front lift.

Again, any input/pics would be really appreciated

Thanks

 

I tow a 5th wheel with my truck. 2012 F350 with a Carli 2.5" leveling kit and 37x13.50 Toyo RTs on stock wheels. It rubs at full lock on the radius arms, but doesn't rub anywhere else. I also have airbags in the back. Sounds pretty similar to what you are looking to do.

 

Mine came with the Toyo Ooen Country A/T II in 275/65R20 and to me they look better than the Michelin tires that come on the Platinum F250. I have even thought about lift yet.

 

I had a 2" leveling kit on my 2014 F350 with 35s and air bags in the rear before I put the 6" lift on it. Made it a lot beefier looking and handled great. Didn't rub anywhere and the 35s were on my stock wheels. If you're not wanting a full on lift kit I'd definitely recommend the 2" level with air bags and 35s

 

And this is how it looked

 

Awesome guys, tanks for the input, going to tire shop tomorrow, air bags going in on Tues. I guess I will do the 2 in lift as well.
Just hooked up TH for first time to new SD, have a bit of sag, but bags will remedy that

 

Like the look, how are the Toyo's for noise and overall ride? They look "chunky"

 

Nsrt that's a beautiful truck. Post pics when you get the tires and level on it

 

The ride is just fine. No different than the stock Michelins or Toyo MTs I had before. The noise isn't bad at all. Much quieter than the Toyo MTs I had before, but louder than the stock Michelins. The noise is what pushed me to these from the MTs and I am very happy.

 

awesome, they really look great, doing AB's on Tues, and then I will do the 2 in lift, and look at tires after that
